Ticket Information
Tickets may be issued to any vehicle illegally or improperly parked on any 台湾swag campus. All parking rules and regulations can be enforced 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Parking fines may be paid online or in person at the 台湾swag Card Services/Parking Services office in Gainesville, Oconee and Cumming, or Parking Services in Dahlonega. Fines paid in office may be paid by credit/debit card (Discover, Master Card or Visa), check or cash (no change). The University will not accept loose/rolled change. Unpaid fines may result in Banner account holds (for class registration) and/or withdrawal of campus parking privileges.
Additionally, tickets written against vehicles not in the University of North Georgia (台湾swag) parking system will be traced via the Department of Motor Vehicles, through which address information is obtained and used for collection purposes.
Tickets can be appealed online within seven calendar days of being issued. After the seven calendar days you waive your right to appeal the parking ticket. The Committee meets once a month. Once the appeal process is completed, the ticket can be upheld, voided, or reduced. The Committee’s findings are final and cannot be appealed further. Parking Services cannot change the ruling of the committee.
Appeals based on the following are NOT acceptable and may be dismissed:
- Lack of knowledge of the Parking Rules and Regulations
- Inability to find a permitted parking space
- Operation of the vehicle by another person
- Failure of enforcement officers to ticket for similar offenses
- Inability to pay ticket fines
