Parking Ticket Appeals
The purpose of the Parking and Traffic Regulations, as established by the Department of Public Safety/University of New Orleans Police, is to provide for fair and orderly parking and traffic flow for all faculty, staff, students and visitors to the University. We strongly encourage you to read and become familiar with the parking and traffic regulations established by University Police. If you are unsure about a parking lot or parking space, you may want to consider parking elsewhere instead of taking the risk of being issued a ticket.
If you feel a ticket was issued in error or believe the circumstances under which you parked in violation of the regulations warrant consideration, you can submit an appeal. It is strongly suggested that you review the regulations during your process of appeal.
