In the capital city, the penalty for not paying for parking will be raised from PLN 50 to PLN 250. This applies to the Unguarded Paid Parking Zone. This is what the city councilors decided on Thursday
The Council of Warsaw has today set an additional fee for each failure to pay a fee for parking a car in the SPPN (Unguarded Paid Parking Zone) in the amount of PLN 250. If the fee is paid within 7 days, it will be PLN 170
—Informed the deputy chairman of the Council of Warsaw Sławomir Potapowicz (KO).
38 councilors voted for it, 18 against it. One person abstained and three were absent.
The amendment to the resolution regarding fees in the Unguarded Paid Parking Zone (SPPN) in Warsaw assumes that the current penalty for the lack of a parking fee from PLN 50 will be raised to PLN 250. The argument is that the penalty has not been increased since 2003.
Officials argue that 17 years ago, PLN 50 had a much different value.
Since then, the basic economic indicators (inflation, average wages, etc.) have increased significantly. For comparison, it can be indicated that the amount of the additional fee for the lack of a valid ticket in public transport in Warsaw is currently PLN 266 and PLN 186.20 if it is paid within 7 days from the date of issuing the document summoning its payment. The amount of the additional fee for failure to pay the fee for parking a motor vehicle in SPPN is therefore underestimated
– written in the justification of the draft resolution.
The amendment also provides that if someone wants to pay the penalty within 7 days of its issuance or delivery, they will have to transfer PLN 170 to the city’s account.
According to the announcement @warszawa makes the payment for the so-called a fine for drivers who avoid paying for parking in SPPN. From September 7, the penalty for not having a ticket will increase from PLN 50 to PLN 250. This is an important change, I would like to thank the City Council for supporting the amendment to this resolution
