City putting stop to delinquent unpaid parking tickets
Those who are loath to pay their outstanding parking tickets thinking they will eventually be waived will be in for a shock in light of the city’s new proactive strategy aimed at cracking down on offenders.
Effective immediately, the City of North Battleford will be getting tough on all unpaid parking tickets. Offenders will need to pay, or face the consequences.
“The past practice has been, for parking and other violation tickets, the revenue was recorded when it was collected,” Mayor Ryan Bater said, following council’s meeting Monday. “The standing practice has been to write-off tickets after a year. That’s no longer going to be the case.”
