Parking Infractions and Appeals:


Parking lots at the University are private property. Purchase of any parking permit or day pass constitutes an agreement from the purchaser to abide to the Rules and Regulations approved for the University community by the Board of Governors. Copies of this document are available in written form at Parking Services.

Notices are issued for a number of infractions which contravene these rules and regulations. All infractions are issued in accordance with the Trespass to Property Act, and failure to settle accounts may result in loss of parking privileges, towing of vehicles, and/or issuance of a Trespass Notice banning the offender's vehicle from campus.

If your vehicle is towed:

Unauthorized or improperly parked vehicles will be ticketed and towed at the owners' expense and liability. Park only in marked parking areas. Do not park in loading zones, roadways, fire routes, aisle ways, landscaped areas or other non-parking areas.

All towing of vehicles at The University of Western Ontario is performed by a private contractor in accordance with City of London standards (Bylaw No. L-115-24).


Towing (Service Charge) $ 40.00
Dollies (install and remove) $ 40.00
Storage (per day) $ 15.00
Towing Fees are subject to change without notice.


Please Do Not Ignore a Parking Ticket!

Accounts with unpaid fines run the risk of the following actions: parking privileges revoked, academic records sealed, vehicles towed, and/or account balance transfered to a collection agency. This is a fully automated process, and we suggest you deal with these problems promptly to avoid unnecessary charges.



Appeals

All parking penalties, with the exception of towing, may be appealed within fourteen days of the violation date. After the 14 day period, payment must be made prior to appeal. Appeals for citations older than 45 days will not be accepted. If you wish to make a credit card payment, please visit our secured web site at Infraction Payments.

Appeals must be made in writing and the appellant may attend the session by choice. Appeals are judged by committee members independently representing the University community, and in no way, represent the bias of Parking Services.

Parking is permitted in Authorized Areas Only and is defined by signage and yellow lines painted on the surface. "No Parking" signs, by law, are required only at 100 yard intervals. Missing, broken or raised gates do not permit unauthorized parking, unless this is clearly reflected in the signage at the lot entrance. The following items are not considered to be grounds for a successful appeal:

  • unauthorized parking for short periods,
  • failure to observe signs or regulations,
  • personal convenience, or other subjective concerns.
