Transparency of the appeal process for Parking and Mass Transit Services
Transparency of the appeal process for Parking and Mass Transit Services
The Issue
The University at Albany's Parking and Mass Transit Services department runs the highest-revenue-generating parking management system of any campus within the State University of New York system of 64 campuses.
We therefore ask for the following:
(1) That Parking and Mass Transit Services opens their appeal process to public view.
(2) That Parking and Mass Transit Services reconsiders its decision on booting cars after collecting $100 of tickets.
(3) That Parking and Mass Transit Services, in conjunction with ITS, develops a system to inform a student or staff member of impending towing, if such an action is needed.
The importance is that as a public university, this university - nor any public institution of higher learning - has the right to impose violations on private property (i.e. vehicles) and with consideration of no transparent appeal process, that due process is not being upheld.
