Bill Summary
Amending Title 53 (Municipalities Generally) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in parking authorities, providing for parking tickets.
AI Summary
This bill amends Pennsylvania's municipal laws to introduce several new restrictions on parking ticket issuance and enforcement. Specifically, the bill limits parking entities (which are companies contracted to manage parking-related activities) to issuing only one parking ticket per vehicle per day, prevents them from imposing fines for delinquent tickets until 14 days after the payment due date, requires municipal approval for changes to parking rates and enforcement hours, and prohibits performance evaluations, pay raises, or bonuses for employees based on the number of parking tickets or violations issued. The bill defines a "parking entity" as a company contracted with an authority, municipality, or the Commonwealth to enforce parking violations, issue tickets, manage parking lots, or conduct other parking-related activities. The provisions aim to create more fair and transparent parking enforcement practices by preventing potentially predatory ticketing behaviors and ensuring that parking entities cannot create financial incentives that might encourage excessive ticketing. The bill will take effect 60 days after its passage.
