On Tuesday I wrote about a parking ticket we received in Old Orchard Beach the previous evening. I wasn't able to reach the appropriate person on Tuesday, but he did return my call on Wednesday.
I told him my story and I asked that our parking violation be forgiven.
He couldn't do it. It was a town ordinance and he didn't have the authority to override it.
What other recourse do I have?
"You could take it to court, and perhaps a judge will overturn it."
Go to court? No.
When I insisted there must be SOMEONE I could talk to on the phone that could void our ticket, he said, "Well, you could call my supervisor."
Yes, that would be nice and may I have his name, please.
Called the supervisor. He was in! Briefly told him my story.
"Send your ticket to my attention and I will void it."
I am happy to at least pay for the two hours of parking.
"That would be fine - just enclose a check for $4 made out to the town."
So I did.
CASE CLOSED!
