Parking Ticket Violations

Parking Tickets

Most violations are enforced through electronic monitoring of parking areas primarily in downtown Marietta.

• Payment of civil penalty for parking will not become part of a person's driving record or used by insurance companies in calculating motor vehicle insurance premiums or result in criminal conviction.
• Violations are issued to the registered owner of the vehicle.
• The fine amount is shown on the parking violation.
• Payment is due within 10 days of when parking violation was issued.
• Late fees will be incurred if fine is not paid by due date shown on parking violation. Unpaid violations may be transferred to collection agency or reported to credit bureaus.
• Accumulation of 5 or more unpaid parking violations will result in additional penalties and immobilization and/or towing/impoundment of your vehicle.
