Parking Tickets & Citations

Borough Issued Parking Tags

Parking Tickets are issued by both the Swissvale Police Department and Code Enforcement to vehicles that are in violation of the Borough Motor Vehicle Code. Violations include, but are not limited to, expired parking meters, violation of residential parking permit, blocking or parking on sidewalks, blocking a driveway, and parking in a handicap space. 

Street Sweeping

Street Sweeping begins on the first Monday in April and continues through October. Cars must be moved off the street between 8:00 a.m. and noon on your street sweeping day to accommodate the street sweeper. Cars that are not moved will be ticketed. If you are unsure of your street sweeping day, please check the street sweeping signs on your street, check this list or call the Borough Administrative Office to determine your street sweeping day. Warnings to move vehicles will be issued for the first two weeks of street sweeping. 

Paying a Ticket

Both Street Sweeper and general parking citations can be paid by cash, check or money order in person at the Borough Administrative Office Monday through Friday, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. You may also place in within an envelope to drop within the red box at the bottom of the main ramp outside of Door #1 of the Borough Office.  Please make sure to include either the ticket number or license plate number of the vehicle associated with the ticket you are paying. This helps to insure that your payment is processed quickly and correctly.

Fines that are not paid within 5 days of issued summons will be subject to a $35.00 late fee.
