CalUond.& Stat. a..ably Bill 401
1"2 Legl.l&tlye B...lon
StJMMAR.T
The Governor recently signed into law Assembly Bill 408 which
decriminalizes parking citations, removes parking citation
processing from the courts, and establishes a system of
administra.tive adjudication for these offenses. Decriminalization
of parking citations will complete the departure of parking
citations from the criminal justice system. It will replace the
present costly and ineffective threats of criminal prosecution for
unpaid parking citations with a combination of DMV registration
COllections and a streamlined civil judgements process.
Administrative adjudication will replace the complex criminal court
process with procedures that require a no-charge review of
citations by the parking agency, offer a mail-in or personal
conference with a hearing eY~miner, and permit a final review by a
civil court. Under this system, parking enforcement officers will
not have to appear for hearings on contested citations.
AB 408 will become effectiveJulv 1. 1993. The legislation
requires that by January 1, 1994 most parking agencies shall assume
responsibility for parking citation processing and that all parking
agencies fully implement a parking citation hearing eY"miner
program. Between July 1,1993 and implementation of the hearing
examiner program, but not later than January 1, 1994, the court is
required to provide the hearing e.....mi ner reviews. The legislation
includes revisions in the mandated distribution of ~rki?g citation
revenue. . '
POSSIBLE ORGHIZA.'1'IOR PLaH
Establishing the parking citation hearing program will be a complex
effort that, as mandated by state law, IllUst be completed by January
1, 1994. A highly qualified and experienced administrative staff
will be needed to lead the implementation effort. A preliminary
list of implementation tasks is as follows:
If parking citations are being processed by a court, develop
plans to transfer responsibility for citation processing from
the court to the processing agency;
Develop detailed organizational and budget plans for this new
program. It 1s anticipated that the hearing eY~mi ner program
will require *** (to be determined by the parking agency) new
positions;
Prepare detailed policies and procedures for the hearing
examiners to follow when conducting hearings;
1
RES 93-217
,
Develop and 1mplement plana to locate hearing office. in
.........(location(.),
Prepare detailed plans to coordinate the hearing examiner
program with the .administrative review. procedure that must
be provided for parking citation complaints before a hearing
examiner review is permitted;
Work closely with parking citation processor, to develop and
implement the computer systems and organizational and policy
changes reauire~ to support the hearing examiner program.
. -
Implementation of the hearing ey.miner program in the department
responsible for citation issuance would retain within that
department the necessary coordination of effort between the
citation processing, the required administrative review, and the
new hearing eYaminer program. However, the organizational approach
may vary by jurisdiction in order to reflect the policies goals of
each organization.
"
UVDrIJJ: ABD OPDA'1'IORS
To provide the financial resources to support the hearing examiner
program, many parking agencies will be able to retain a portion of
the parking citation revenue that they previously paid to a Count
<BursuaDt to Section 1463.009 of the Penal Code. 408 re eale
Section 1463.00~ The increased revenue will begin accru ng to
parking agencies on July 1, 1993 even if their hearing examiner
program is not yet operational.
AB 408 also modified Penal Code Section 1463.28. This section
permits certain named counties to retain parking penalty increases
if a county opted into the program and increased parking penalties
after September, 1988. 0 408 does not repeal this section.
However, it does place a July 1, 1992 cap on the dollar amounts
paid to a county. This chaDge is discussed in more detail under
Section 10.2 of the bill which is explained later in this paper.
There are other revenue benefits that will likely accrue to parking
agencies ""as a result of ,0 408. Because parking enforcement
officers will no lon&r have to atlPeU' in court~ additional
productive hours will available for parking enforcement. It is
I anticipated that enhanced collection procedures permitted by 'the
civil judgement process may further improve the citation collection
rate. Also, the parking penalties, fees, and charges are all set
by the governing body of the jurisdiction. This increased control
could lead to increased revenue.

AB 408 was authored by Assemblyman Bob Epple and sponsored by the

County Municipal Court, tbe AutOlllObile Club, and DIOst cities and
counties throughout the state.
e 408 extensively revises DlOSt of the California Vehicle Code
provisions that relate to the issuing, processing and collection of
parking citations. A detailed review of the changes, organized by
the sections of the legislation, follows:
.
Section 1
Legislative Findings and Declarations
Section 2
Repealed Penal Code Section 1462.3 which pertained to parking
citation revenue distributions for state colleges and universities.
Section 3
Repealed Penal Code Section 1463.009 which mandated by statute
parking citation revenue distributions throughout the state.
Section 4
Amended Penal Code Section 1463.28, which pertains to the
distribution of .bail increases. in certain listed counties. The
amendment states that PC 1463.28 does not apply to the collection
of parking fines ,EXCEPT as provided in eve 40200.3 and 40200.4.
These sections are discussed in detail below.
Section 5 and 6
Incompletely revises the bearing process for booted and towed
scofflaw vehicles. At the present tillie, eve 22651 (1) requires that
a hearing on a vehicle towed for unpaid parking citations be beld
before a judge. Bowever, eve '2651.' requires that the hearing for
a booted vehicle be held before a hearing e.....mi ner. It was the
intent that all parking hearings would be held before hearing
examiners. , CPPA and Judicial Council are already working on
legislation to correct this problem.

eve 40200 (a) provides that any violation of any regulation
governing the standing or parking of a vehicle is subject to a
civil penalty and that the enforcement of the penalties shall be
governed by the administrative procedures set forth in Article 3 of

have to meet the very high burde'n of proof requirements necessary
for crimina' violations. Civil matters do not have to deal with
the complex legal issues that are part of any criminal case.
eve 40200(b) provides that, except as provided in Section 40209,
the registered owner and the driver, rentee or lessee, of a vehicle
cited for an~iOlatiOi of any regulation governing the parking of
a vehicle ointl liable for the parking penalty unless the
owner can show t t the vehicle was used without the consent of

increase effective between September 16, 1988 and July 1, 1992,
For only those counties identified in pe 1463.28, this distribution
of -bail increases- is capped at the July 1, 1992 level. Any
increases in parking penalties approved by a court after July 1,
1992 are to aCCnle to the parking agency beginning on July 1, 1993,
