Parking Infractions

Traffic and Enforcement

Infraction tickets are given to vehicles that do not comply with the Parking and Transportation Regulations.

We issue tickets to gain compliance with this policy. Tickets range from $60 to $200 and if a vehicle displays a stolen, counterfeit, altered or illegally transferred permit, the ticket is $500. 

If a ticket is unpaid for more than seven days, a reminder notice will be send to your residence. Should the ticket remain unpaid for 30 days or more, then the right to park on campus is suspended and the vehicle is subject to towing and impoundment.

Payment of Fines

Parking fines can be paid  with a credit card.  

Parking fines can also be paid at ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½ Campus Service Centre, located in the Main Lobby of International House (169 University Gate NW).  Fines are payable by cash, cheque, debit card, Visa, Mastercard and American Express. Please note that cheques are not accepted for a tow release.

Parking staff are not permitted to discuss the validity of a ticket.

Parking tickets that remain outstanding are considered a debt to the university and may be subject to the filing of a withhold on a students' account. This withhold would not allow services to be received from the Registrar's office at the ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½. 

Appeals

Tickets can be appealed within 30 days of the infraction.

Grounds for Appeal
