d. Administrative Hearing Procedures.
(A) Procedural Matters.
(1) Appearances. The officer issuing the citation shall not be required to appear at the hearing. The contestant shall appear at the hearing, unless a hearing by mail has been designated by the contestant in the appeal request form. If the contestant does not appear at the hearing, the appeal shall be decided by the hearing official based on the citation, the record of the administrative review, and any other relevant material in the record, taking into account the reasons specified by the contestant on the appeal request form. Appearances by minors shall be governed by the provisions of Section 40215(c)(2) of the California Vehicle Code.
(2) Hearing Officials. The hearing shall be conducted by a hearing official.
(3) Hearing Record. The hearing official shall write pertinent information into the record during the in-person hearing. The hearing record and any supporting documentation will remain with the case file at the city. If the contestant appeals the hearing official's decision to the court, the entire case file will be forwarded to the court. The hearing records for those cases not appealed to the court will be retained by the city for one year.
(4) Representation. The contestant may, in his or her discretion, be represented by an attorney in the appeal process, at the administrative hearing. Any such representation shall be at the sole and exclusive cost of the contestant. No contestant shall be entitled to representation at the expense of the city, or any other public agency, irrespective of indigence status.
(B) Conduct of the Administrative Hearing.
(1) Hearing Official Duties. At the time of the administrative hearing, the hearing official shall: (i) make a pre-hearing statement, briefly explaining the nature of the civil proceedings, the manner of conducting the hearing and the limits on the introduction of evidence, the process of rendering a decision, the effects of the decision in terms of collection remedies available to the Coachella Police Department, the right of the contestant to appeal to the court for a de novo hearing, and any other matters in the hearing official's discretion; (ii) read the citation into the record; (iii) administer an oath to the contestant and any prospective witnesses; (iv) record the name and address of the contestant; and (v) write the registered owner's name and address and the contestant's relationship to the registered owner (if applicable).
(2) Proof Requirements; Validity of Citation. The city bears the burden of proof, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the citation meets statutory requirements for validity. Where the citation, or copy thereof, contains all of the items specified in Section 40202(a) of the California Vehicle Code, the issuing agency shall not be required to produce any evidence other than the notice of the parking violation or copy thereof and information received from the department of motor vehicles identifying the registered owner of the vehicle. The documentation in proper form shall be prima facie evidence of the violation. The contestant may introduce relevant evidence relating to the validity of the citation in rebuttal.
(3) Proof Requirements; Contestant Defenses. The contestant bears the burden of proof, by the preponderance of the evidence, that although the citation is facially valid, a viable defense exists which would preclude the contestant's liability for the parking penalty, or that a viable defense exists which would limit the contestant's liability for late payment penalties. Nonreceipt of the notice of violation itself, if based on sufficient evidence, may constitute a defense to the late payment penalties based on nonpayment of the notice of violation, however, is not a defense to late response to the notice of delinquent parking violation. The defense of nonreceipt of the notice of violation is not available to the registered vehicle owner, where the person operating the vehicle at the time of the citation was not the registered vehicle owner. Clear proof of timely payment of the citation is a defense to late payment penalties. Defenses relating to the merits of the citation must be established by the contestant by sufficient evidence. Such defenses may include, but are not limited to: (i) signage matters (missing, obscured or defaced signs); (ii) impossibility of knowledge of the applicable parking restrictions (where the contestant demonstrates that it was impossible for him or her to become aware of the applicable parking restrictions); (iii) malfunctioning parking meters; (iv) recent loss of parking permit or placard; and (v) mechanical breakdown of the vehicle (where the vehicle was not illegally parked prior to the breakdown, the violation in fact results from the breakdown and reasonable steps were taken to remove the vehicle prior to the occurrence of the violation). Personal reasons, inconveniences, lack of funds, forgetfulness, failure to observe signs, lack of available parking elsewhere, lack of knowledge of the applicable restrictions, and similar or related matters are not under any circumstances a defense to liability for the parking penalties. Failure to list a defense in the statement of reasons contained in the contestant's appeal request precludes the contestant from utilizing that defense at the time of the appeal hearing.
(4) Evidence. The rules of evidence for civil court procedures shall not apply in administrative hearings conducted pursuant to this procedure. Evidence relevant to the issues raised by the contestant's statement of reasons, and to the validity of the citation itself under Section 40202 of the California Vehicle Code, will be received. Weight and reliability of the evidence provided will be determined by of the hearing officer. Other than the citation and the DMV information, the hearing official shall receive into the record the reviewing official's record from the administrative review, together with relevant testimony, documentation and other material which is submitted by either party. Weight and reliability determinations, shall be made by the hearing official. The hearing official may, but is not required to, admit evidence in the form of declarations of witnesses, submitted by the contestant. Such declarations shall not be admitted unless presented in the form required for declarations under California Section 2015.5 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, and shall contain the statements required by Sections 2015.5(a) and 2015.5(b) of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
(5) Witnesses. The contestant may present witness testimony as evidence at the discretion of the hearing official. The hearing official, after conducting the initial procedures of the hearing, may exclude witnesses until their turn to testify. The hearing official may limit the number of witnesses to prevent repetitive testimony in the interest of efficiency The hearing official may conduct such cross-examination of the contestant or any witness presented at his or her discretion.
(C) Determination of Appeal. The hearing official shall make a written decision on liability for the parking penalties based on the testimony and other evidence in the record. The hearing official shall enter the disposition and the total amount of parking penalties on the hearing record. The decision, including the rationale thereof, shall be placed in written form. Although the hearing official's decision may be personally delivered to the contestant following the completion of the hearing, the written decision shall be sent to the contestant, to the address listed on the contestant's appeal form, via first class mail. Following a determination by the hearing official that a person has committed the violation, the hearing official may in his or her discretion, may allow for deferred payment of the parking penalty, if the person provides evidence satisfactory to the hearing official, of an inability to pay the parking penalty in full. The hearing official's decision shall be the final decision of the city. The decision shall set forth the time limits for the contestant to file for judicial review in the court, and a notice that if no such review is sought within the applicable time limitations, the decision shall be final for all purposes.
Judicial Review. Within thirty (30) days after the mailing or personal delivery of the final decision described in Section 10.08.040(J)(4)(d)(C), the contestant may seek review by filing an appeal with the court. Such review will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 40230 of the California Vehicle Code.
Copies of Citations. Upon request by mail or in person, the Coachella Police Department will provide a copy of a citation to any person who has received a notice of delinquent parking violation, or to his or her agent. The copy will be provided within fifteen (15) days of the request, upon payment of the fee established by the Coachella Police Department. The copy can be produced by any reasonable means available to the Coachella Police Department, including printed representation of computer information.
