BACKGROUND
Commencing this month, Committee will note that the report includes the number of First
Attendance Hearings conducted. In 1994 changes to the Provincial Offences Act required
municipalities to opt into a system of First Attendance Hearings. Staff were appointed to
conduct Hearings of contested tickets. If, in the opinion of the Hearing Officer, there was a
deficiency with the ticket or an unlikely probability of gaining a conviction, the Officer could
withdraw the ticket. The Act also provided for a set of fines to be levied against the
Municipality if defective tickets were knowingly processed for court.
During a First Attendance Hearing the Officer must look at all the circumstances surrounding
the issuance of a ticket. If the Officer upholds the ticket, the Defendant has the opportunity to
request a trial before a Justice of the Peace and a trial date is set accordingly. Committee may
note that the number of Hearings and the number of tickets may vary. In some cases one
Defendant may appear to contest several tickets,
The following pertinent statistical information relates to Parking Enforcement activities for the
month of March 2002 and is provided herein for the information of Committee and Council.
