Any recipient of an administrative citation may contest that there was a violation of the Murrieta Municipal Code, or that he or she is the responsible person, by submitting a written request for a hearing, and returning it to the designated collector as noted on the citation, within twenty (20) days from the date of the issuance of the administration citation, together with an advanced deposit of the fine. Any administrative citation fine which has been deposited shall be refunded if it is determined, after a hearing, that the person charged in the administrative citation was not responsible for the violation(s) or that there was no violation(s) as charged in the administrative citation.
