Changes in parking fines

 

There is a new three-tiered fee system for parking fines

See table for details. The new system only impacts individuals who pay their fines after 10 days. The greatest impact is on those paying fines after 30 days.

Tier One
 
Pay within 10 days
 
Pay the lowest fine*

 
Tier Two
Pay after 10 days but before 30 days
 
Pay the next highest fine.*

Tier Three
 
Pay after 30 days
Pay the specified penalty*

Why the change?

The new fine system was introduced to help increase compliance with parking regulations. Currently, 18% of parkers do not pay for parking in Calgary Parking Authority controlled spaces. The CPA believes a fair and equitable system should be in place for all parkers.
