Appealing a parking citation
An appeal form is provided for citizens who have received a citation for a parking offense, a winter parking ban violation, or interfering with snow removal.
The process for appealing the citation is to provide information as to what occurred and your reasoning for a reduction or dismissal of the fine.
All appeals must be filed with the Northfield Police Department no later than 7 days from the date of the citation was issued for the appeal to be considered.
The 10-day increase in penalty is waived; there is no increase while waiting for an appeal decision.
To make an appeal for any parking citation you received:
- Print the Parking Citation Appeal Form (PDF),
- Complete all necessary information
- Return to the Northfield Police Department Information window in the front lobby, or simply mail the form directly to:
