A. It shall be the duty of the Hailey police department, upon observing a vehicle stopping, standing or parking in violation of the provisions of this chapter, to leave upon such vehicle a separate parking ticket providing notice for each posted time limit that such vehicle has been parked or stopped in violation of the provisions of this chapter.

The parking ticket shall instruct the owner or operator of the vehicle to report to the Hailey clerk's office.
B. In order to eliminate burdening courts with violations of this chapter and to eliminate, to the extent possible, public inconvenience, each person receiving a parking ticket under this section left upon the vehicle operated by the person shall pay a fine and/or a penalty or be subject to infraction penalties in accordance with the following provisions:
1. Within twenty one (21) days of the date of the parking ticket, the person operating the vehicle shall pay to the Hailey clerk's office in full satisfaction of such violation, the fine indicated in the following fee schedule:

The additional fifteen dollars ($15.00) is deemed necessary to defray administrative and clerical expenses. The failure of any operator to report and/or make such payments to the Hailey clerk's office within the times prescribed herein shall render the owner or operator thereof subject to the penalties as provided in subsection D of this section.
C. If a vehicle is found stopped, standing or parked in any manner in violation of the provisions of this chapter and the identity of the operator cannot be determined, the owner or person or entity in whose name the vehicle is registered or the named lessee in a rental or lease agreement of the vehicle shall be prima facie evidence of the person or entity responsible for the violation of the provisions of this chapter.
D. Any owner or operator who shall stand, stop or park a vehicle in violation of the provisions of this chapter is guilty of an infraction. The administrative procedure for payment of parking tickets for violations is set forth in subsections A and B of this section. In the event of nonpayment in accordance with the administrative procedure described in subsections A and B of this section, an infraction citation or complaint may be filed in the magistrate division of the district court for a parking violation or for failure to pay a parking penalty. A person or entity who pleads guilty or is found guilty of such an infraction shall be fined the fixed penalty and court costs set forth in the Idaho infraction rules for parking infractions and failure to pay parking infractions.
