Parking Violations

Overnight Parking Restrictions

Overnight parking on the City streets or in any City parking lot is prohibited between the hours of 3 a.m. - 5 a.m.  In accordance with State Law, notice is posted at the entrances to the City. This moratorium has been lifted through Jan. 19 to allow citizens more time to purchase their annual parking permit. 

The ordinance provides for issuance of permits to park on the street or lot. If you need to park overnight for a short time due to driveway repair, out of town guests, etc. contact the Police Department on  the Overnight Parking Hot Line at 248-305-2790 weekdays after 4 p.m. or weekends. An annual or seasonal permit may be issued in the event of a demonstrated hardship.

Parking violations may be paid by any one of the following methods:

1. In person at the Cashier’s Office, during regular business hours.
2. By mail.
3. Online
4. Through the 24-hour drop slot located in the front lobby.

In order to check on the status of a pending violation, you will need to call the Cashier’s office during regular business hours. Please be able to provide either the ticket number or the license plate of the vehicle that received the ticket.

Now you can pay your parking ticket online

If you need to pay a parking ticket, online payments are now being accepted. The traditional methods of paying – in person at the Cashier’s Office at City Hall, or by mail – are still available. Paying online includes a convenience fee by the third-party provider, but often saves time over mailing the payment or paying in person.
