Parking Enforcement and Fines

Parking Enforcement occurring on our campuses (including the student residences) is subject to an enacted Bylaw of the Municipality in which the campus is located.

Failure to abide by outlined parking rules may result in a parking ticket, tow, and/or cancellation of parking privileges.
When a vehicle is involved in an infraction the owner/operator will be issued a fine in the form of a parking ticket. Unauthorized parking in signed areas (ie. speciality parking spots – Dental Clinic, 30 Minute Parking etc.) will be subject to a parking ticket.

Examples of additional parking infractions may include, but are not limited to:

  • Not paying for parking during enforced hours;
  • Paying for parking but incorrect license plate;
  • Parking in a prohibited zone (e.g. fire routes, hatched marked areas, etc.)
  • Parking in an accessible parking space without an Ontario Ministry of Transportation accessibility parking permit prominently displayed;
  • Parking in a different area than the one selected when a parking session was purchased;
  • Non-electric vehicles parked in an electric vehicle charging space;
  • Vehicles parked in an electric vehicle charging space and are not charging the vehicle; and,
  • Cars that are triple parked.

Parking on-campus is bylaw enforced from Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Fire lanes and accessible parking is enforced 24/7. Bylaw Officers patrol lots daily.

Parking tickets are issued by a Municipal Bylaw Officer – not Niagara College.

The issuing Municipality of the parking ticket has control of the final decision regarding parking ticket appeals, including any court appearance, payment or cancellation process.
