To Contest a Ticket

If you feel you have received a parking ticket in error, you may file a complaint by calling 610-841-9090, by filling out the Online Ticket Complaint Form to the right, or by downloading a PDF of the Ticket Complaint Form. Once you’ve completed the PDF form, email it to: Sherry Chaklos.

At the time of complaint, the ticket gets placed on “suspension”. During this time, the fine remains at the amount it was at the time of the complaint. Once received by the Parking Authority, you will receive a letter with the results of our investigation and further instructions for either payment or appeal.
