Vehicles with five (5) or more unpaid citations can result in “booting” or towing.
PAYMENT PLAN
Effective August 1, 2018, customers who have 2 or more citations or a single citation totaling $350 or more, can apply for a payment plan. A $25 enrollment fee is required to enroll. The payment plan will allow for eligible citations to be paid in monthly payments over a 4-month period.
* Academic Holds for parking will remain until the total fees are paid in full. A payment plan does not constitute the release of the academic hold.

An individual who is dissatisfied with the outcome of the initial review may request an Administrative Hearing within 21 days of the mailing of the initial results. The Administrative Hearing may be done either in person or by submitting additional written documentation. Prior to the Administrative Hearing, an individual must pay the parking penalty fee as a deposit. Recipients of AFDC, SSI/SSP, unemployment or general assistance as well as displaced homemakers may request an exemption from paying the deposit prior to the Administrative Hearing. VERIFICATION IS REQUIRED FOR ALL EXEMPTIONS.
If an individual is still dissatisfied a Court Hearing may be scheduled with the Santa Barbara Municipal Court within 30 days of the mailing of the Administrative Hearing results. To file an appeal in court a filing fee of $25.00 is required.
