Appeal procedures.

The parking ticket represents a determination that a parking violation has been committed and the determination is final unless otherwise provided or appealed as provided in this chapter.
(1) Purpose. The parking appeals process serves three primary functions:
(a) To hear parking ticket appeals;
(b) To hear appeals of wheel lock eligibility determinations; and
(c) To hear appeals of impoundments.
(2) Procedure. Any individual who has received a parking ticket may appeal the alleged parking violation. Appeal of wheel lock eligibility determinations and impoundments are described in WAC 504-15-865 and 504-15-870. Parking tickets may be processed by an appeals committee member or an assigned hearing officer.
(3) Written parking ticket appeals. The appeal must be in writing and received at the parking department within 10 calendar days of issuance of the parking ticket. Forms are available online. The parking appeals committee or hearing officer makes an initial decision regarding the appeal within 20 calendar days during the academic year and within 30 calendar days during the summer months after receipt of the appeal. The committee provides a brief statement of the reason(s) for its decision to the appellant within 10 calendar days of the decision.
(4) Review hearing of initial decision. If the appellant is dissatisfied with the initial decision, the appellant may request a hearing before a hearing officer or the parking appeals committee. Such request must be made within 10 calendar days of the date of the initial parking appeals committee decision. If no such request is received, the initial decision is final. During the hearing the appellant and representatives of the parking department may present and cross-examine witnesses. The hearing officer or appeals committee renders a decision in writing and provides the appellant with the decision within 10 calendar days after the hearing.
(5) Appeal to district court. RCW 28B.10.560 provides that an individual who is not satisfied with the final decision of the university may appeal to district court. The notification of appeal to district court must be in writing and must be received at the parking department within 10 calendar days after the date of the review hearing. The parking department forwards the documents relating to the appeal to the district court.
