No vehicle shall be parked on any street in the City of Papillion
for a longer continuous period than 72 hours and on streets where
a continuous parking period shorter than 72 hours has been established

There is hereby created the Parking Violations
Bureau as a branch of the Office of the City Clerk. It shall be the
duty of the City Clerk to collect all fines for violations of all
parking ordinances enacted under this code. Such fines shall be in

but within 30 days of the date of the violation. The City Clerk shall
immediately notify any person who fails to pay a parking fine within
seven days after the violation. The parking fines shall be payable
at the office of the City Clerk. Should any such fine not be paid
within 30 days of the violation, a complaint against such person shall
be filed in the appropriate court. Upon conviction the fine for failure
to pay a parking fine within 30 days of the violation shall be $40,
plus court costs. All money collected by the City Clerk under this
section shall be transferred to the City Treasurer at the end of each
month. The City Clerk shall keep accurate records of such fines.
