Public Safety

 Any person who received a parking summons who believes there are reasons to appeal the ticket, may file a written appeal.  A Summons Appeal form must be completed and submitted to the Public Safety Office within five (5) days of the date of the summons.

All appeals will be reviewed by the Parking Appeals Board consisting of two students, one staff member, one faculty member, one college administrator and one Public Safety administrator.  After the Board has made a decision, you and the Public Safety Office will be notified in writing of the outcome of the appeal.  The decision of the Board is final.

The following reasons are NOT acceptable grounds for dismissing a parking violation:

• Lack of knowledge of the Parking Regulations
• Inability to find a proper parking space/no parking space available
• Inclement weather
• Late for class
• No permit displaed/failure to obtain proper permit
• Permit used by another person/operation of the vehicle by another person
• Failure of the officers to ticket previously for similar offense
• Disagreement with the Parking Regulations
• Forgetting to display permit
