Plan Adopted TO Aid Unintentional
Meter Violators Avoid Penalty

comply with the new set up, such
motorists have only to drive to
the city hall and put nickle in
the special meter to be placed in
front of the building.
They must then sign the waiver
notice on their traffic ticket and
hang it on hook at the Traffic
Bureau, provided for that purpose.
This must all be done within one
hour of the time the ticket is is
sued by the arresting officer; less
the usual fine of so cents for a
meter violation will apply.
One excuse which motorists
find is no good when it comes to
paying fines for violations is the
claim that the meter failed to
work, or was jamed.
Before an officer puts ticket
on any car parked beside meter
showing the red flag, the officer
tests the meter to make sure it is
working" Mayor Kingsmore said.
"If the meter is jamed, the car
does not get ticket; if the officer
finds the meter 0. k, then the
ticket goes on the car and the
jammed meter excuse is no good. |"

Because a great many people
who receive tickets for parking
meter violations claim they got
the ticket while they were in
some store getting change to put
in the meter, or other such ex-
cuSes, village officials will try a
new scheme for the next few
weeks.
Attached to the violation will
be a slip of paper bearing this
statement:
IMPORTANT NOTICE"
eff violator of this ordinance
will report to the Traffic Bureau
at the City Building within one
Cd hour of time noted on this
ticket and sign waiver and de-
posit FIVE CENTS in meter at
City Building for that hour you
will be excused from any further
penalty for this violation"
The purpose of the scheme is
to give persons who have re-
ceived tickets through some un-
avoidale circumstance chance
to avoid the so cent fine which
goes with actual violations. To
