[Ord. No. 629 §1, 10-3-2008]
Any outstanding parking violations issued on any vehicle within
the City, which is subject to personal property tax within the County
in which the automobile is located, shall be included as charges on
all tax bills for personal property within said County.
[Ord. No. 629 §2, 10-3-2008]
The person responsible for collecting the revenues for such
City (either the City Collector or the County Collector under contract
with the City) shall collect these parking violation charges with
and in the same payment as personal property taxes are collected by
said Collector. No personal property tax bill shall be considered
paid unless all charges for parking violations are also paid in full,
and the Collector of Revenue shall not issue a paid personal property
receipt until all such charges are paid.
[Ord. No. 629 §3, 10-3-2008]
A. If
any person should claim that there is no liability for the outstanding
violation notices issued on said vehicle, that person shall be required
to pay all the charges on the bill in order to get a receipt, and
thereafter must submit to the City Prosecutor within thirty (30) days
evidence that the claimant thinks will exonerate him or her from the
parking violation. If the City Prosecutor accepts such evidence, the
City will dismiss the ticket and the funds will be returned to the
vehicle owner that had been paid under protest.
B. If
no request is received during the thirty (30) days following payment,
it will be presumed that the charge is valid and proper and will be
shown thus on all Municipal Court records.
C. In
the event the City Prosecutor does not agree with the evidence produced,
either the City Prosecutor or the claimant can request a trial on
the original parking violation charge(s).
