Administrative Hearing Program

Please note: this is not the Parking Administration office, where you go to pay your bogus parking tickets. This Unilocal is in regard to the Administrative Hearing Program, where you go to after you appeal your bogus parking ticket and it is (of course) denied by the City of San Diego.
Next step on the crazy train is to set a date with this Administrative Hearing Program to come downtown and sit in a room with a hearing officer who will listen as you recite your sad story of being wrongly cited. Yes, they will take your evidence and paperwork into consideration but usually the same result always is concluded: GUILTY & pay up.
This Administrative Hearing Office is just another layer of bureaucracy that the City of San Diego uses to soak and fleece their own citizens with embezzlement by parking citation.
Since I have the time and personal inclination to always fight things like this, I do not mind the hassle but I feel sorry for those who are bound by full time jobs, distance or temperment and are not able to confront parking abuses.
In my case, I received a citation from the dopes at the Harbor Police for parking in a yellow zone using my (legitimate) handicapped placard, even though all the other cars nearby me were parked the very same way and received no such citations. My Disability paper states you can park in yellow, AS LONG AS IT IS NOT A COMMERCIAL ZONE. This area was for boat storage on Shelter Island and had NO COMMERCIAL zoning yet the City of San Diego denied my appeal.
Too bad for them when I go to my second hearing down there, that I am taking their already assumed denial of my appeal straight to Superior Court after this, where a JUDGE OF THE LAW can see how unfairly and stupidly these paper-​shuffling bureaucrats really are. 1 Unilocal STAR.
