Appeals
All appeals are submitted using our Payment Portal. If you received a parking citation you may appeal it by submitting a completed parking citation appeals form to the Parking Office within 14 calendar days from the date the citation was issued. Once submitted for review, the citation will be put on hold. This means the fine amount due will not increase nor will any further action be taken for collection until it has been reviewed.
Guidelines for Appeal
- In your appeal, only address parking related circumstances and conditions that are directly related to when the citation was issued to the vehicle.
- The appeals process is not a forum for complaints about parking. If you wish to file a complaint or suggestion for parking please send an email to parking@uwgb.edu.
- Ignorance of parking regulations is not considered a valid basis for an appeal.
- If you are using a medical emergency or mechanical failure as the basis for your appeal evidence of such is required (i.e. doctors' note or mechanic note/bill).
- Any citation may be appealed using the payment portal; however, the following reasons for appeal are very unlikely to be accepted:
- Lack of "convenient" or legal parking spaces (including 15 min zones)
- Only being there for a short time
- Took longer than anticipated
- Can't pay citation or afford to purchase permit
- Didn't notice / read / see posted signs
- Didn't have time
- Everyone else does it
- You've done it before & didn't get ticketed
- (some nameless person) said you could
- No one else got a ticket
- Neglected to enter valid license plate information into the virtual permit system
- Loading / unloading
