Any person charged with a violation of University Parking regulations must pay the monetary penalty. If the payment is made within seven (7) calendar days, a written appeal may be filed, but the filing must be within the seven (7) day period from receipt of citation. In cases where appeals are upheld, the monetary penalty will be refunded. Parking Citation Appeal Forms are available by phone (309) 438-8391 or you can pick one up in person person from the Office of Parking and Transportation or you can download the from below:
Any vehicle owner or operator whose vehicle is towed pursuant to the Illinois State University Parking Regulations may, within seven (7) days of the towing, apply for an appeal at the Office of Parking and Transportation. If the vehicle owner or operator establishes by a preponderance of the evidence that vehicle was towed in error, Parking and Transportation will reimburse the vehicle owner or operator an amount no greater than the towing and storage fee collected by the towing company.
The first step in the appeal process is a review of the written appeal by the Appeals Review Officer. It is important, therefore, to include all pertinent information in the written appeal. At the time you initiate the appeal the date and time that the appeal will be heard will be established. You will be informed of the date and time of the appeal hearing so that you can make the required appearance. Appeals are heard at the ISU Police Department, located in the Nelson Smith building, just west of the RedBird Arena.
If the Appeals Review Officer approves the appeal the determined monetary penalty will be refunded. Appeals denied by the Appeals Review Officer may be appealed to the Parking and Transportation Committee. A hearing will be held on each forwarded appeal and the appellant will be informed of the hearing time and location so that they may make the required appearance. The committee decision is the final on campus decision.
