3. Nominate another driver of the vehicle

If you are not the driver of the vehicle, or wish to contest an infringement posted to you as the owner of the vehicle, please complete the driver nomination form below. A driver nomination form is also included on the final demand letter you will receive if you fail to pay the parking infringement within 28 days. 

4. Do nothing

Non-payment 

If the City of Nedlands does not receive a payment within the 28 days, a final demand letter – with an additional $24.10 fee – will be sent to you, advising you have a further 28 days to pay.

If payment is not received after 28 days of the final demand letter, the infringement will be registered with Fines Enforcement Registry and your driver's licence, or any vehicle licence you hold, may be suspended. 

If the matter is registered with Fines Enforcement Registry, additional costs will also be payable.

IMPORTANT: If you do not pay the modified penalty within 28 days after the date of notice, you may be prosecuted or enforcement action may be taken under the Fines, Penalties and Infringement Notices Enforcement Act 1994.
