SEC. 301. FINES AND FEES, AUTOMATIC INDEXING, LATE PAYMENT; SPECIAL COLLECTIONS. (a) Authorization to Charge Fees and Fines. The SFMTA shall charge reasonable fees for the cost to the SFMTA, including the cost of administrative enforcement and adjudication, of providing benefits or privileges, services or products, or licenses, permits, investigations, or inspections; or a fee for the entrance to or use of property or purchase, rental, or lease of its property. The SFMTA shall charge fines or penalties for violations of State or local law. Notwithstanding the procedures set forth in this Article 300, the SFMTA Board may modify the fees or fines by resolution at any time. (b) Base Fees and Fines, Automatic Index. (1) Base Fee or Fine. The base fee or fine to be charged and collected by the SFMTA shall be the fees and fines in effect as of March 19, 2024, effective for Fiscal Year 2023-2024, as provided in SFMTA Board Resolution 240319-028 Section 3 and as updated by subsequent SFMTA Board Resolutions and published as described in subsection (b)(3). (2) Annual Adjustment of Base Fees. Beginning with fiscal year 2024-2025, effective July 1 2024, the Base Fees shall be adjusted each year on July 1 using the Automatic Index in this subsection (b)(2) by the Director of Transportation or the Director’s designee, in consultation with the SFMTA Chief Financial Officer and without further action by the SFMTA Board, unless otherwise specified in Article 300 or Article 900. The Director of Transportation or the Director’s designee, in consultation with the SFMTA Chief Financial Officer, shall also be authorized to add to any fee or fine any additional penalty assessments or charges mandated by the State of California. (A) The Automatic Index shall be calculated as follows: Automatic Index = [Bay Area Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) ÷ 2] + [2-year Operating Budget Labor Cost Change ÷ 2]. The Bay Area CPI-U forecast used will be from the United States Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics and Research and the Operating Budget Labor Cost Change shall be the San Francisco Controller’s projections as of April 1 of each year; and once calculated, the Automatic Index shall be rounded up to the nearest $1.00. Fees for subsequent years will be based on the original calculated rate prior to rounding. (B) As part of the Two-year SFMTA Budget process, the Director of Transportation or Director’s designee, in consultation with
the SFMTA Chief Financial Officer, shall: (i) For certain fees subject to cost recovery, consider whether the current fees have produced or are projected to produce revenues sufficient to support the costs of providing the services for which the fees are assessed and that the fees will not produce revenue which is significantly more than the costs of providing the services for which the fees are assessed. If the Director of Transportation or the Director’s designee, in consultation with the SFMTA Chief Financial Officer, determines that application of the Automatic Index is not warranted for either of these reasons, the Director shall recommend a modification to the SFMTA Board as part of the Two-year SFMTA Budget; and (ii) Re-evaluate during each Two-year SFMTA Budget process the adequacy of the Automatic Index in subsection (b)(2)(A) and propose any changes to the SFMTA Board. (3) Publication. The SFTMA shall publish the base fees and fines, additional penalty assessments mandated by the State of California, and annual adjustments made using the Automatic Index in subsection (b)(2)(A) on its website as the “SFMTA Fee and Fine Schedule” and shall update it annually by June 1, with any changes effective July 1. The SFMTA shall indicate which fees and fines are not subject to the Automatic Index. The SFMTA shall also make the SFMTA Fee and Fine Schedule available upon request at the main office of the SFMTA. If the SFMTA Board adopts by resolution a new base fee or fine, or modifies or deletes an existing base fee or fine, the new or modified fee or fine shall be included on the SFMTA Fee and Fine Schedule together with the applicable resolution number. (c) Late Payment and Special Collection Penalties and Fees. Except as otherwise specified in this Code, the SFMTA may charge penalties and fees to persons to whom civil citations have been issued or to owners of cited vehicles for failure to either pay the citations or to contest the underlying citations by the due date affixed to the notice of violation. The penalties and fees shall be published on the SFMTA Fee and Fine Schedule and adjusted by an Automatic Index under the provisions in subsection (b)(2), except that for Fiscal Years 2026-2027 and 2027-2028, late payment penalties and fees will increase by 10% each July 1.

(3) Neither the waivers nor reimbursements of fees available under subsection (b)(2) above for stolen vehicles shall be available if the towed vehicle’s registered owner is a business, including but not limited to a partnership, for-profit corporation, or non-profit corporation, or if the registered owner rents the towed vehicle to other persons as part of a peer-to-peer, person-to-person, or other social car sharing enterprise. (c) Prohibition on Waiver and Reimbursement of Towing and Storage Fees. No reimbursement or waiver shall be made to the registered or legal owner of a vehicle pursuant to the provisions of subsection (b)(1) or (2), above, if: (1) The owner or person in lawful possession of the vehicle is chargeable with violation of any law of the City and County of San Francisco, the State of California, or the United States, and said charge relates to the towing and storage of the vehicle or the removal of component parts thereof; or (2) Reimbursement or waiver is request- ed pursuant to subsections (b)(1)(B) or (b)(1)(C), above, and the City’s error in ordering, reporting, filing or recording the tow is attributable, in part, to the conduct of the registered owner, legal owner, or one in lawful possession of the vehicle; or (3) The registered or legal owner of the vehicle, including a firm or corporation that owns vehicles used for commercial purposes, cannot show evidence of financial responsibility for said vehicle as required by Section 16020 of the California Vehicle Code.

No. 09-172, 9/15/2009; amended by SFMTA Bd. Res. No. 180403-057, Ad. 4/3/2018, Eff. 5/4/2018, Oper. 7/1/2018) SEC. 307. PROCEDURE FOR ASSESSMENT AND COLLECTION OF ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTIES FOR SECTION 306 VIOLATIONS. (a) This Section shall govern the imposition, assessment and collection of administrative penalties imposed pursuant to Section 306. (b) The SFMTA Board of Directors finds: (1) That it is in the best interest of the City, its residents, visitors and those who work in and on City streets and sidewalks to provide an alternative, administrative penalty mechanism for enforcement of the obstructing traffic violations covered by this section in addition to the existing enforcement mechanisms authorized under the California Penal Code; and (2) That the administrative penalty scheme established by this section is intended to compensate the public for the injury and
damage caused by the prohibited conduct and gain compliance with the SFMTA's "Regulations for Working in San Francisco Streets" (also known as "the Bluebook"). The administrative penalties authorized under this section are intended to be reasonable and not disproportionate to the damage or injury to the City and the public caused by the prohibited conduct. (c) Administrative Citation. Where an officer or employee designated in Section 306 determines that there has been a violation of Division I, Section 7.2.71, the officer or employee may issue an administrative citation to the person and/or entity responsible for the violation. For purposes of this Section, an entity is responsible if an officer, employee or agent of the entity commits the violation. The citation shall inform the person or entity responsible of the date, time, place and nature of the violation and the amount of the proposed penalty, and shall state that the penalty is due and payable to the SFMTA within 15 business days from the date of the notice, if not contested within the time period specified. The citation shall also state that the person or entity responsible has the right, pursuant to Subsection (d), to request administrative review of the citing officer or employee's determination as to the violation and assessment of penalties, and shall set forth the procedure for requesting administrative review. The designated officer or employee shall serve the administrative citation as follows: (1) Where there is a nexus between the violator and a specific property: (A) One copy of the Notice shall be posted in a conspicuous place upon the property. (B) One copy of the Notice shall be served upon each of the following: (i) The person, if any, in real or apparent charge and control of the premises or property involved; (ii) The owner of record, if applicable. Service required by subparagraph (B) shall be made by first class mail and a certificate of mailing shall be prepared. (2) Where the issuing officer or employee is unable to ascertain a nexus between the violation and property within the City, a completed copy of the administrative citation may be served on the individual who has committed the violation by personal service, or by first class mail and a certificate of mailing prepared. (3) For purposes of this Section, there is a nexus where activity on the property has caused, contributed to, or been a substantial factor in causing, the violation. (d) Request for Hearing; Hearing. (1) A person or entity that has been issued an administrative citation may request administrative review in order to contest the citation issued in accordance with this Section. Administrative review shall be initiated by filing a request for administrative review with the SFMTA Hearing Division within 15 business days from the date of the citation. Failure to request a hearing in a timely manner or to attend a scheduled hearing shall satisfy the hearing requirement. (2) Whenever administrative review is requested pursuant to this Section, the SFMTA Hearing Section shall, within fifteen business days of receipt of the request, notify the requestor of the date, time, and place of the administrative hearing by certified mail. Such hearing shall be held no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the SFMTA Hearing Section receives the request, unless time is extended by mutual agreement of the affected parties. (3) The administrative hearing shall be conducted by a neutral hearing of office assigned by the SFMTA Hearing Section. The SFMTA Hearing Section may issue rules as needed to implement this requirement. The parties may present evidence and testimony to the Hearing Officer. All testimony shall be under oath. The shall ensure that a record of the proceedings is maintained. The burden of proof to uphold the violation shall be on the City, but the administrative citation shall be prima facie evidence of the violation. (4) The Hearing Officer shall issue a decision including a summary of the issues and the evidence presented, and findings and conclusions, within fifteen (15) calendar days of the conclusion of the hearing. The Hearing Officer may uphold the penalty imposed by the citation or dismiss the citation. A copy of the decision may be personally delivered to the person or entity contesting the violation or sent by first class mail. The decision shall be a final administrative determination. An aggrieved party may seek judicial review of the decision pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1094.5 and 1094.6. (e) Payment and Collection of Penalty. (1) Where a person or entity has not made a timely request for administrative hearing, the penalty shall be due and payable to the SFMTA on or before 15 business days from the date of issuance. (2) Where a person or entity has made a timely request for administrative hearing, and the penalty has been upheld upon review, any administrative penalty imposed by the Hearing Officer shall be due and payable not later than 10 business days from the date of the notice of decision issued under subparagraph (d)(4). (3) If a penalty due and payable under paragraphs (1) or (2) remains unpaid after the specified due date, the SFMTA shall send the violator written notice that the penalty is overdue. Penalties that remain unpaid 30 days after the due date shall be subject to a late payment penalty of fifty ($50) dollars. Persons and entities against whom administrative penalties are imposed shall also be liable for the costs and attorney's fees incurred by the SFMTA in bringing any civil action to enforce the provisions of this section, including obtaining a judgment for the amount of the administrative penalty and other costs and charges. (4) Where there is a nexus between the violation and property in the City owned by the violato
t whom administrative penalties are imposed shall also be liable for the costs and attorney's fees incurred by the SFMTA in bringing any civil action to enforce the provisions of this section, including obtaining a judgment for the amount of the administrative penalty and other costs and charges. (4) Where there is a nexus between the violation and property in the City owned by the violator, the SFMTA shall further inform the violator that if the amount due is not paid within 30 days from the date of the notice, the SFMTA shall initiate proceedings to make the amount due and all additional authorized costs and charges, including attorneys fees, a lien on the property. Such liens shall be imposed in accordance with Chapter 10, Article XX of the Administrative Code.

(a) This Section shall govern the imposition, assessment and collection of administrative penalties imposed pursuant to Section 314. (b) The SFMTA Board of Directors finds: (1) That it is in the best interest of the City, its residents, visitors and those who park on City streets to provide an alternative, administrative penalty mechanism for enforcement of Residential Parking Permit applications that contain false, misleading, or fraudulent information in addition to the existing enforcement mechanisms authorized under the San Francisco Transportation Code; and (2) That the administrative penalty scheme established by this section is intended to compensate the public for the injury or damage caused by any person who submits a Residential Parking Permit application containing a fraudulent statement in order to obtain preferential parking in a Residential Parking Permit Area. The administrative penalties authorized under this section are intended to be reasonable and not disproportionate to the damage or injury to the City and the public caused by the prohibited conduct. (c) Administrative Citation. Where an officer or employee designated in Section 314 determines that there has been a violation of subdivision (b) of Division I, Section 7.2.50, the officer or employee may issue an administrative citation to the person and/or entity responsible for the violation. The citation may be personally served on the applicant or by certified U.S. mail to the address indicated on the permit application. The citation shall inform the person or entity responsible of the date and nature of the violation and the amount of the administrative penalty, and shall state that the penalty is due and payable to the SFMTA within 15 business days from the date of the notice, if not contested within the time period specified. The citation shall also state that the person or entity responsible has the right, pursuant to Subsection (d), to request an administrative hearing of the citing officer or employee's determination as to the violation and assessment of penalties, and shall set forth the procedure for requesting an administrative hearing. The designated officer or employee shall mail the administrative citation and evidence supporting the determination of a violation of subdivision (b) of Division I, Section 7.2.50 to the residential address listed on the Residential Parking Permit application submitted to the SFMTA pursuant to Section 905.

(2) Whenever an administrative hearing is requested pursuant to this Section, the SFMTA Hearing Section shall, within fifteen business days of receipt of the request, notify the requestor of the date, time, and place of the administrative hearing by certified mail. Such hearing shall be held no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the SFMTA Hearing Section receives the request, unless time is extended by mutual agreement of the affected parties. (3) The administrative hearing shall be conducted by a neutral Hearing Officer assigned by the SFMTA Hearing Section. The SFMTA Hearing Section may issue rules as needed to implement this requirement. The parties may present evidence and testimony to the Hearing Officer. All testimony shall be under oath. The Hearing Officer shall ensure that a record of the proceedings is maintained. The burden of proof to uphold the violation shall be on the City, but the administrative citation shall be prima facie evidence of the violation. (4) The Hearing Officer shall issue a decision including a summary of the issues and the evidence presented, and findings and conclusions, within fifteen (15) business days of the conclusion of the hearing. The Hearing Officer may uphold the penalty imposed by the citation or dismiss the citation. A copy of the decision may be personally delivered to the person contesting the violation or sent by first class mail. The decision shall be a final administrative determination. An aggrieved party may seek judicial review of the decision pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1094.5 and 1094.6. (e) Payment and Collection of Penalty. (1) Where a person has not made a timely request for administrative hearing, the penalty shall be due and payable to the SFMTA on or before 15 business days from the date of issuance. (2) Where a person or entity has made a timely request for administrative hearing, and the violation and penalty have been upheld upon review, the administrative penalty shall be due and payable not later than 10 business days from the date of the notice of decision issued under subparagraph (d)(4). (3) If a penalty due and payable under paragraphs (1) or (2) remains unpaid after the specified due date, the SFMTA shall send the violator written notice that the penalty is overdue. Penalties that remain unpaid 30 calendar days after the due date shall be subject to a late payment penalty of fifty ($50) dollars. Persons and entities against whom administrative penalties are imposed shall also be liable for the costs and attorney's fees incurred by the SFMTA in bringing any civil action to enforce the provisions of this section, including obtaining a judgment for the amount of the administrative penalty and other costs and charges.
