MAYOR HAHN ANNOUNCES NEW ONLINE SERVICE TO PAY PARKING TICKETS

LOS ANGELES - Mayor Jim Hahn today with the Department of Transportation and its parking citation contractor, Affiliated Computer Services, announced a new online service the public can use to pay parking citations on the internet.

"This new online service gives our residents and visitors another easy and quick option for paying a parking ticket," said Mayor Hahn.

The new online service allows parking citation payments to be made with a credit card via a secured website on the internet. This service can be accessed through the Department of Transportation's website at:

www.lacity-parking.org

"While no one likes to pay a parking ticket, we hope the online service will at least make it more convenient to pay the fine," said Department of Transportation General Manager Wayne Tanda.

The new website offers users another payment option and complements the existing Pay-By-Phone service which allows payment of parking citations by credit card via telephone.
