Parking Ticket Enforcement

Any person who receives a parking ticket may settle the ticket by paying a fine in the sum of $20.00 within 10 days of the date of the citation.  After 10 days, the parking ticket may be settled by the payment of $35.00.

Any person wishing to dispute a parking ticket may request a court date by calling the Wheeling Police Department at (847) 459-2651 or (847) 459-2022.

Individuals who do not settle the parking ticket or request a court date as indicated above are assigned a court date.  Failure to appear in court on the date assigned will result in a finding of guilty and a judgment in the amount of $125.00.
