Beginning September 1, 2022 the City of Yellowknife will launch an Administrative Monetary Penalty system (AMPS), making it easier and faster for residents to resolve parking tickets.
People who receive a Penalty Notice (parking ticket) and wish to contest it will no longer have to go through the formal court process. Instead, people who are issued a parking ticket have the option of first requesting a review by a Screening Officer. If a resident disagrees with the decision of the Screening Officer they can request a review by an Adjudicator. The decision of the Adjudicator is final.
If you receive a Penalty Notice, you can request a review of it within 30 days of the date of issue.
Individuals paying tickets within 14 calendar days of the date of issue will receive an early payment discount.
