Tickets, Fines, and Booting
All faculty, staff, students, affiliates, vendors, and visitors are responsible for all tickets incurred by them, vehicles under their control, or their visitors.
All ticket payments and appeals must be received at the Parking & Transportation Office within 10 calendar days of issue.
Appealing a Ticket
One “no permit or wrong permit for lot displayed” violation will be forgiven, utilizing an appeal form located in the Parking & Transportation Department or on-line through your SIS account. You can also send an appeal to parking@rpi.edu. These appeal forms must be received in the Parking & Transportation Office at 2144 Burdett Avenue within ten calendar days of receipt of a ticket.
Vehicles booted for delinquent tickets lose the right to appeal those tickets.
