Parking Violation Appeals

If a visitor, student, staff, or faculty member believes the citation was issued in error, they have the right to appeal to the Traffic and Parking Appeals Committee. This appeal must be filed through the parking app within five (5) days of the citation being issued. Late appeals will not be considered, except in extenuating circumstances. If you are not affiliated with UAFS or if your citation does not appear on your UAFS account, please email ParkingFREEuafs for assistance.

All appeals must be filed online at the parking site (parking.arms.app) within 5 calendar days of the citation date. The following are non-appealable excuses and will not be heard by the appeals committee:

List of Non-Appealable Excuses

  • “I never received a ticket.”
  • “I was only parked there for a few minutes.”
  • “I didn’t realize I couldn’t park there.”
  • “I didn’t know I had to pay to park.”
  • “I’m not familiar with where I should park.”
  • “There were no signs or paint markings stating I couldn’t park there.”
