Specifically, and without limitation: 1.Stanford University shall provide all notices and instructions required under Vehicle Code section 21107.8. 2.It shall be unlawful to offer incentives based on the number of invoices issued or the number or percent of disputed invoices adjudicated that uphold parking charges. 3.Penalties for parking violations in the Stanford Public Parking Facilities shall not exceed the penalties applicable to similar violations in City‐regulated parking areas, as provided in the most recently adopted Palo Alto Administrative and Civil Penalty Schedule, including, without limitation, the penalties applicable to overtime parking in a City lot and unpermitted parking in a City permit area. 4.Parking fee invoices shall include a conspicuous statement to the effect that “This parking invoice fee notice is not issued by the City of Palo Alto.” It shall be unlawful for Stanford University or its agents to represent itself as a government enforcement agency or to use terminology that is restricted to governmental law enforcement. b.Stanford University as the enforcement entity is the beneficiary of monies collected from parking invoice fees.

Dispute Resolution. a.Stanford University shall adopt and publish dispute resolution procedures for parking penalties consistent with Vehicle Code section 40215 and that shall include, at a minimum: 1.Specified time periods for notifications, review, and appeal. 2.The ability to request an administrative review. 3.The ability to request an administrative hearing, in person or by mail, before a third‐party examiner who has been adequately trained and who provides an independent, objective, fair, and impartial review. i.The examiner shall be empowered to allow payment of the parking invoice fee in installments for persons showing evidence of inability to pay the parking invoice fee in full. ii.The examiner’s decision shall be delivered by personal delivery or by first‐ class mail. b.In the event Stanford University fails to adopt a policy as required by subsection (a), the following procedures shall apply: 1.Within twenty‐one calendar days of the issuance of a notice of parking violation or within fourteen calendar days from the mailing of a notice of delinquent parking violation (whichever is later), a person may request (by telephone, in writing, or in person) an initial review by Stanford University. Upon this review, the notice of parking violation or notice of delinquent parking violation and all penalties and fees based thereon may be canceled by Stanford University if a determination is made that either the violation did not occur, that extenuating circumstances make dismissal of the citation appropriate in the interest of justice, or that the registered owner was not responsible for the violation; however, under no circumstances shall a personal relationship with Stanford University or any of its agents be grounds for cancellation. i.There shall be no charge for this review. ii.The decision of Stanford University shall be mailed to the person requesting review. iii.If the review does not result in cancellation, the decision shall include a reason for that denial, notification of the ability to request an administrative hearing, and notice of the procedure for waiving prepayment of the parking penalty based upon an inability to pay. 2.If the person is dissatisfied with the results of the initial review, the person may request an administrative hearing of the violation no later than 21 calendar days following the mailing of the results of the initial review. i.The request may be made by telephone (or virtually), in writing, or in person. ii.The person requesting an administrative hearing shall deposit the amount of the parking penalty with the processing agency. If the person provides proof of financial inability to deposit the full amount of the parking violation (according to standards developed and included in the DocuSign Envelope ID: 94832F7F-41C5-4F3B-B1CA-5B2CCBC1CB61 104_20240125_ts24 Stanford University’s notice of decision upon initial review), the requirement for payment of the parking penalty as a prerequisite to contesting it shall be waived. iii.The person requesting a hearing shall have the choice of a hearing by mail or in person. An in‐person hearing shall be conducted within Stanford University’s main campus. iv.The hearing shall be held before a third‐party examiner who has been adequately trained and who provides an independent, objective, fair, and impartial review in accordance with Vehicle Code section 40215(c)(4). v.The examiner’s decision following the administrative hearing may be personally delivered to the person by the examiner or sent by first‐class mail, and, if the notice is not cancelled, include a written reason for that denial. vi.The examiner may allow deferred payment of the parking penalty, payment in installments, or the performance of community service in lieu of payment, if the person produces satisfactory evidence of inability to pay the penalty in full. // // // // // // DocuSign Envelope ID: 94832F7F-41C5-4F3B-B1CA-5B2CCBC1CB61 104_20240125_ts24 SECTION 4. Environmental Review. The Council finds that the adoption of this resolution is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility of a significant effect on the environment as a result of the transfer of enforcement parking authority from the City to Stanford University.
