If a civil infraction relates to a parking regulation, the following rules shall apply:

(1) The notice of infraction may be issued by affixing the same to the subject motor vehicle in a conspicuous place.

(2) Notwithstanding Section 9.17.040(1)(a), Provo City Code, a notice of infraction placed on a parked motor vehicle need not include a name and address.

(3) Whenever a motor vehicle has been parked in violation of any parking regulation, the person in whose name such vehicle is registered shall be prima facie responsible for such violation and liable for payment of the applicable fee.

(4) Any motor vehicle with respect to which four (4) or more notices of infraction are in default is hereby declared to be a public nuisance and Provo City may authorize said motor vehicle to be towed from the public streets at the expense and risk of the registered owner. Said motor vehicle shall be held and not released until the unpaid fees and reasonable costs of towing and storage have been paid.

(5) If a motor vehicle has been towed from the public streets pursuant to the provisions of this Chapter and is being held for the payment of fees and charges, the owner thereof, or the agent of the owner, may, in writing, request a hearing to determine the validity of the action taken with respect to said motor vehicle, and said hearing shall take place within seventy-two (72) hours from the date of the request, unless the applicant agrees to a longer period of time before the hearing. The Hearing Examiner may order the release of any motor vehicle without cost to the owner or the owner’s agent if said motor vehicle was towed from the public streets or is being held in violation of this Chapter or other applicable law.
