Penalty Notice Information

Please provide the information found on the Penalty Notice

The Town of Lincoln has entered into a Shared Hearing Agreement with other Niagara Municipalities to provide the service of a Hearing Officer for parking and non-parking Administrative Monetary Penalty appeals that cannot be resolved via the local screening process.  Your request will be processed by the Town of Lincoln and forwarded to the host Municipality. Your Hearing will be subject to their Hearing Protocol and requirements for Hearing Appointment Times as noted below:

  • Your hearing will be scheduled for the next available date;
  • If you need to have your hearing held on a day/time other than the next available date, you must request that the Hearing Officer extend the time to request a Hearing. This will require your attendance before the Hearing Officer on the next available date to explain the reasons for your extension request (which should be detailed on this request form). Extensions of time to request a Hearing will be subject to the decision of the Hearing Officer and, depending on the decision of the Hearing Officer, you should be prepared to proceed with your appeal on the same day; and
  • If submitting your request by email, a notice will be sent to you confirming the date and time of your hearing.
