How to Appeal a Citation

Students, faculty, and staff who receive a parking ticket and feel that it was issued in error, may appeal the ticket online via AU Access within ten (10) calendar days from the date the ticket was issued. Please note: Students, faculty, and staff who are unable to appeal online will have to come to the Parking Services Office to file the appeal.

The Appeal Board will make one of the following rulings: Approval, Denial, or Adjustment.

A decision of denial or adjustment does not remove the citation from the determination of a vehicle’s need to be towed or wheel-locked. An individual may only file three appeals between the first day of a Fall semester and the day before the first day of the next Fall semester.

The Board’s decision will be emailed to the appellant, and the decision is final however, the appellant retains the right to a second appeal. The second appeal must be submitted to the Parking Services Office in person within five business days from the date that the appeal decision was emailed to the appellant.
