Appealing a Parking Citation or Impound
An appeals form with the following information can be obtained here.

Park City Municipal Corporation has elected to utilize an administrative appeals review process for individuals who believe their parking citations or impound requests were issued in error.

The administrative review process consists of two appeal levels:

1. The issuing agency reviews the ticket or impound record for errors upon appeal request receipt.
2. An administrative adjudicator reviews the written appeal, the ticket or impound records, and all submitted evidence, then renders a decision.

The following are not reasons for appeal:

I was running late...
I'll never do it again...
I was just dropping off a paper, or person....
I didn't know...
I was only parked for a minute or two...
I forgot...
This is my first ticket...
I couldn't find a parking space...
I was getting change for the meter...
Park City's administrative review process requires all appeals to be submitted in writing.

Send your written appeal and accompanying documentation to:

Park City Parking Services
PO Box 1480
Park City, UT84060-1480
Tel: (435)615-5301
Fax:(435)615-4904

Important things to remember:

1. Your written appeal must be submitted to Parking Services within 10 days from the date of the citation.  Do not pay the appealed citation unless the ticket is upheld.
2. Attach to your written appeal a photocopy of your parking citation and any other supporting documentation, such as permit, vehicle owner information, police impound case number, etc.
3. Do not send originals.  Documents will not be returned.
4. Incomplete information or failure to contest the citation within the 10 day time period will automatically end the appeal process and the parking citation must be paid.
5. The findings of the administrative review will normally be mailed to you within 14 days of the date your appeal was received.

If the results of the investigation uphold the citation, you must pay the fine within 14 days of the date printed on the mailed notification.  Failure to pay the parking citation will cause late fees to increase the total fine amount.  No late fees accrue during the appeal process.

All appeals must be attested with the appellant's signature to certify that all information submitted is truthful and accurate.
