Appeals

If you feel you have received a ticket in error, you may file an appeal using the form below.  Your appeal will be reviewed by the parking appeals committee, and a response will be sent by email.

Please be aware of the following rules that govern the appeals process:

  • All decisions by the appeals committee are final and non-negotiable.
  • Appeals must be initiated within 7 days of the original ticket.
  • Please include all information relevant to your appeal in the form below.  You will not be able to add additional information at a later time unless it is requested by the appeals committee.  Incomplete appeals will be dismissed.
  • Parking tickets are typically paperless and issued via email, accompanied by a notice being placed on the vehicle.  Not receiving a paper ticket or notice is not a valid appeal.
  • Profanity, lewd or aggressive language will result in immediate dismissal of your appeal.
  • All violations are photographed.  If you feel an additional photo may help your case, you may upload it using the form below.

The following reasons for an appeal will not be considered valid and will be automatically denied:

  • Lack of knowledge of parking regulations
  • Failure to notice parking signage
  • Lack of parking in the immediate vicinity
  • Failure to display a valid parking permit
  • The vehicle was only parked illegally for a short period of time
  • Being unaware a parking permit is required to park on-campus at all times
  • Running late to class or appointment
  • Other vehicles were parked improperly or illegally
  • The need to leave immediately after class/meeting
  • Parking illegally although plenty of spaces were available
  • Inability to find an authorized parking space
