Citations

Vehicle drivers shall obey all posted road signs, and all parking and traffic laws of the State of California while on District property. Yuba Community College District Police Department personnel are authorized to issue a citation and/or “Moving Violation” citation (speeding, seat belt law, no proof of automobile insurance, expired vehicle registration, etc.)

The Yuba Community College District Police Department (YCCDPD) is responsible for the enforcement of campus parking regulations within the District. Citations issued by the YCCDPD possess a legal status equal to absentee parking citations issued by other law enforcement agencies in California. The Yuba Community College District Police Department is empowered to issue parking citations under the following sections: Penal Code Section 1463.28 provides that Yuba County, Yolo County, and Lake County may exceed the “Total Bail” amounts of the Traffic Infraction Bail and Penalty Schedule.

Additional exceptions result from two pieces of legislation that became operative January 1, 1994.

Vehicle Code Section 42001 allows universities and state colleges to set a fine schedule for bicycle violations occurring in their jurisdictions that would supersede the Judicial Council penalty schedule.

The fine (bail) is payable within twenty-one (21) calendar days at the Cashier’s office or by mail with a check or money order, or by Visa or MasterCard by phone or in person. The citation number and date must accompany any bail deposit. After twenty-one (21) days, unpaid citations are sent to a processing center. A delinquent notice is then sent to the registered owner of the vehicle and the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is notified. Citations not paid before the notice due date incur a late fee that is equal to the amount of the original citation. If the citation remains outstanding, a hold is placed on the vehicle at the DMV and the registered owner(s) will not be permitted to register the vehicle until the respective citation, including any additional penalties/fees is paid in full.

Current citation fees are:
