  2. Click 'Request Appeal'.

When you associate the vehicle with your profile, it will show up under your profile as the vehicle being linked to you. For example, if Patricia Birch submits an appeal, the vehicle will be associated with her profile after the appeal is made.

Step-by-Step Instructions:
  1. First things first, log in to your OPS-COM user profile. Once you're in, click on the 'Appeals' tab located in the navigation bar. This page will display all the parking violations currently linked to your account.
  2. If you're looking for a specific violation, you can use the 'Search my Tickets' field. Just enter the ticket number you want to appeal, and it will pop right up.
  3. If the violation is still within the allowed appeal period, click on the 'Violation number'. This will open a window titled 'Violation For Ticket: #', where '#' represents your ticket number.
  4. In the 'Reason for Appeal' text box, carefully type out the reasons why you believe the violation should be reconsidered. Be clear and provide any relevant details.
  5. Once you've explained your reasoning, click the 'Submit Appeal' button. If you have a valid email address associated with your account, you'll receive an email confirming that your appeal has been successfully submitted.
  6. Your Parking Office will review your submission. You'll receive another email notification with their decision.
  7. To check the status and details of your appeal after you've submitted it, simply click on 'Show Appeal Information'. This will display the reason you provided for the appeal and the Administrator's response once a decision has been made.
