Citation Petition Form

Citation Petition Form

This form may be used to appeal a parking or traffic citation issued by the Gordon Police. Please note the following requirements:

1. Appeals should be submitted within TEN (10) DAYS of the date the citation was issued. After 10 days, appeals will typically be denied unless the delay was the result of extenuating circumstances.

2. The REFERENCE NUMBER is required. This number can be found on the paper ticket placed on your windshield or within the email verification sent to your Gordon email address. If you can't locate your reference number, contact us by email ([email protected]) with the date and location of the ticket, and we will be happy to provide the reference number for you.

3. Appeals should be submitted by the registered operator of the vehicle. If you receive a ticket while borrowing another person's car, that person should submit the appeal.

If you have any questions or issues, please don't hesitate to contact us at [email protected].
