Except as otherwise provided, violations of any provision of Chapters 10.36, 10.40, 10.44, 10.46, 10.47, and 10.50 of this Title 10 (hereinafter referred to as a "parking violation") shall be punishable by a civil penalty (hereinafter referred to as a "parking penalty").

(Ord. 5294 § 4, 2015; Ord. 4667 § 1, 2000: (Ord. 4453 § 54, 1997: Ord. 4325 § 1 (part), 1996: Ord. 4159 § 2 (part), 1993)
The amount of the parking penalty applicable to a parking violation and the time and procedure for the registered owner or the lessee or rentee of the vehicle to deposit the parking penalty or contest the penalty shall be indicated upon the notice of parking violation when it is served by being affixed to the vehicle or as otherwise provided by law. If the parking penalty is not paid within the time and in the manner stated on the notice of parking violation, the police department or its designated processing agency shall deliver or mail to the registered owner of the vehicle a notice of delinquent parking violation.
(Ord. 4325 § 1 (part), 1996: Ord. 4159 § 2 (part), 1993)
Within twenty-one calendar days of the issuance of a notice of parking violation or within fourteen calendar days from the mailing of a notice of delinquent parking violation (whichever is later), a person may request (by telephone, in writing, or in person) an initial review by the police department. Upon this review, the notice of parking violation or notice of delinquent parking violation and all penalties and fees based thereon may be canceled by the police department if a determination is made that either the violation did not occur, that extenuating circumstances make dismissal of the citation appropriate in the interest of justice, or that the registered owner was not responsible for the violation; however, under no circumstances shall a personal relationship with any officer, public official, or law enforcement agency be grounds for cancellation. The decision of the police department shall be mailed to the person requesting review.
