The Administrative Monetary Penalty System (AMPS) is a way to pay and dispute parking and by-law tickets and penalty notices. This system allows the Town to fully manage disputes over tickets or penalty notices instead of the provincial courts.
If you received a by-law penalty notice or a parking ticket you have two options:
If you disagree with the decision of the Screening Officer, you have up to 15 days from the date of the decision to request a review by a Hearing Officer. The decision of the Hearing Officer is final.
If you do not respond to the ticket or penalty notice by the due date, you waive your right to a review and the administrative penalty is affirmed and not subject to review.
If you fail to respond to the penalty notice there will also be additional administrative fees. The administrative fees are as follows:
Note: other fees may be imposed by the Ministry of Transportation and/or the Ministry of the Attorney General.
