G. Fine Payment and Appeals
Fines must be paid at the cashiers office or by check in the envelope provided with the citation within 15 working days from the date of the citation or the fine will be doubled.Anyone wishing to appeal a citation must do so within the 15 working days or the citation fine will be doubled and all rights of appeal will be lost.
Step 1: If the party wishes to appeal, the citation or copy of the citation must be attached to the completed written appeal form. The Parking and Traffic Appeals Officer will review all appeals. Appeal forms are available at the Public Safety Department. If the citation is appealed and the citation is upheld, payment must be received within twenty-one working days of the appeals letter notification date or doubling of the citation amount will occur.
Step 2: If the party receives an unfavorable decision from the Parking and Traffic Appeals Officer and wishes to appeal further to the college appeals board, the written appeal, the appeals officer's decision, a paid receipt equal to the amount of the penalty, and all enclosures must be returned to the Public Safety Department.
Step 3: Appeals Board. These enclosures will be held for the next appeals board. The appeals board will be the final adjudicating authority on campus.
Step 4: Further appeals may be taken to the Maricopa County Superior Court at the appellant's own expense.
