Policy Procedures

Prior to resorting to the payroll deduction process for the collection of parking fines, several efforts are made to encourage an employee to make payment voluntarily. This collection effort includes the parking ticket, and a letter from the Parking Office.

When the above efforts have failed to result in payment of outstanding fines, such fines may be deducted from the employee’s wages. The deduction may be made based on the following guidelines:

1. When the employee accumulates $25.00 or more in unpaid fines;
2. When the employee leaves state service.
