Welcome to the Bayside City Department of Motor Vehicles
Job Description:
- Patrol Bayside City and issue parking tickets for any violations
- Actively open the DMV office multiple times a week to offer licensing services, ticket payments, vehicle registration (soon) and appeals (s00n).
Parking Violations
Travel around Bayside looking for cars illegally parked. Types of violations:
- Expired Meter – at an unpaid meter. We do not ticket for expired meters on Sunday (we still ticket illegal parking and abandoned vehicles)
- Illegal parking – parked in a no park zone or area not designated for parking
- Abandoned Vehicle – a vehicle in the middle of the street, off the road (ie in bushes or the ocean)
Ticketing
- Take a photo of the car – use a snipping tool, screenshot or gyazo so you can capture float text from a meter if this is an expired meter.
- Upload the photo in the “active violations” channel in Discord. Do this step first. If appealed, we need proof of the time/date of the violation.
