§ 8.10. Violations bureau.


Latest version.
  • The Council shall have power and authority to establish by ordinance a violations bureau within the Court for the handling of such violations of ordinances and regulations of the City or parts thereof as prescribed in the ordinance establishing such bureau. Any person who has received any notice to appear to a charge of violating any such ordinance may within the time specified in the notice of such charge answer at the violations bureau to the charges set forth in such notice in writing pleading guilty to the charge by paying a fine, waiving a hearing in court, and giving power of attorney to make such a plea and pay such a fine in court. Acceptance of the prescribed fine and power of attorney by the bureau shall be deemed to be complete satisfaction for the violation, and the violator shall be given a receipt which so states. The creation of such a bureau shall not operate so as to deprive any person of a full and impartial hearing in Court should a person so choose.
