Citations

Parking citations are issued at the rate of one per violation. Vehicles improperly parked in handicapped spaces, reserved parking areas, fire lanes, and no-parking areas will be issued a parking citation. Each citation carries a penalty of $50.

Vehicles without the appropriate parking decal displayed will be identified by license plate number. Any fees associated with identifying parking violators by license plate number through the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration will be charged to that violator.

All parking fees issued by the College are payable to Howard Community College at the Cashier’s office and official transcripts will be held if not paid in full. In addition to receiving a parking citation from the college, an individual parked in a handicapped space, fire zone, or no-parking zone is subject to additional fines from the Howard County Police Department. Howard County fines are imposed at $350 per violation in a handicapped space, $150 per violation in a fire zone, and $40 per violation in a no-parking area. All fines issued by Howard County are payable to Howard County Police Department.
