municipal parking; civil penalties; maximum

HB 2634 limits how much Arizona cities can charge as fines for parking violations. It sets a maximum penalty of 400% of the daily parking fee, with reduced rates for prompt payment: 150% if paid within 7 days, and 200% if paid within 8-14 days. The bill directly affects municipal governments that set parking rules and drivers who receive parking tickets. It establishes clear, predictable caps on fines rather than allowing cities to set arbitrary penalties.
