New Parking System
We recently completed the transition to a new, all-in-one parking system from Parking Management Bureau (PMB). The new system includes "single sign-on" which is a fancy way of saying that you will be able to login using the same credentials you use for insideCC. The new system also simplifies the information you enter to obtain a permit.
What does this mean for you? Ordering parking permits will be more streamlined and much easier. We are also working hard to provide as much flexibility as possible as we all transition to the new system. We're here for you!
- Cash option purchases will be available through the Cerro Coso Business Office at (760) 384-6214 or ccbusinessoffice@cerrocoso.edu.

All initial disputes must be submitted online within 21 days from when the ticket was issued or 14 days from the mailing date of the delinquency notice (CVC 40215a). If you have already paid the fine, you have waived your right to dispute.
- A confirmation will appear on your screen after you successfully disputed your citation, and you will also receive a confirmation email.

Second Level Dispute Forms
A second level dispute must be submitted within 21 days from receiving the determination of your first level dispute. Download the Second Level Dispute Form on this PMB webpage.
You must submit evidence and supporting documentation. Examples of evidence: copies of parking permit or disabled placards, documents or testimony of witnesses, photographs of the location where the vehicle was parked showing relevant signs posted or curb striping.
- Print and mail form to PMB with applicable evidence and a check in the amount of the fine for each ticket being disputed. This is a required deposit by law that will be held until a determination is reached. If dismissed, the deposit will be returned to you.
- If you are unable to send the required deposit, Financial Hardship Waiver must be submitted in place of the deposit, along with the required supporting documents. It will be approved or denied by the hearing examiner. If denied, a deposit will be due immediately.

A hearing shall be conducted within the jurisdiction of the issuing agency. If an issuing agency contracts with an administrative provider, hearings shall be held within the jurisdiction of the issuing agency or within the county of the issuing agency (CVC 40215).
Check the status of your request by searching for your ticket on the PMB website. If the status reads “Administrative Hearing/Court,” the hearing is in the process of being scheduled by the agency pending determination.
Third Level Dispute Forms

You must also notify PMB by mail within 30 days of the hearing examiner’s decision if you choose this option. The court requires a $25 processing fee.
