Parking and Towing Assistance Program (PTAP) Payment Plan: Policy and Procedure Guidelines

The St. Louis Treasurer’s Office (STLTO) through the Parking Violations Bureau (PVB), is offers a payment plan option for vehicle owners under the burden of fees from overdue parking tickets. The payment plan is an agreement between the vehicle owner, the PVB, and the STLTO in which the participant agrees to pay the amount of the ticket(s) and fine(s) over time instead of paying the full amount all at once. Each participant must agree to make all payments on the total balance of outstanding parking fines and fees.

Entering into a payment plan allows a vehicle owner to make monthly payments, while avoiding vehicle immobilization (booting), towing, and additional late fees. Participants can still receive additional parking tickets while in a payment plan and must pay these tickets in addition to the agreed upon monthly payment. See below for information and requirements to enroll in the Parking and Towing Assistance Program (PTAP).

Bankruptcy Recovery Program (BRP):

If you have filed for bankruptcy and have a parking ticket balance, you can provide proof of bankruptcy filing to the PVB. Once your documentation is reviewed, our staff will determine eligibility for our Bankruptcy Recovery Program. While in the BRP, fines will remain, but the late fees will be forgiven and your total ticket liability will be reduced by 50% if the balance after waived fees exceeds $500.

Minimum Payments Schedule:

Based on the ticket balance accrued, the minimum monthly payment is set accordingly. Please see the following table:

Total Balance Range	Minimum
$0 – $500	$50
$501 – $1,500	$100
$1,501 – $3,000	$250
$3,001 +	10% of total ticket value

Note: The table above applies to those enrolling in the PTAP program on or after 3/1/2026.

Making Payments to ParkLouie:

Once a monthly payment is agreed upon with the PVB, payment must be received by the monthly date set forth in your agreement. Monthly payments can be made by online, in person or by mail.

Payments & Missed Payments:

Once a monthly payment is agreed upon with the PVB, payment must be received by the monthly date scheduled in your agreement. Monthly payments can be made by mail, in person, or online. For your first payment, the payment must be made the day of the establishment of the payment plan. If a payment is expected to be late, we recommend the participant call the PVB to discuss their situation.

For the first payment that is missed or late, participants have until the end of that month for payment to be received. If a second consecutive payment is late or missed, all delinquent fees will be unfrozen on the upcoming first Tuesday of the month and the participant is dropped from the program. Once dropped from the program, a participant will NOT be eligible to re-enroll for at least 6 months. After two failed attempts at the program, the participant will no longer be eligible to enroll in PTAP.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much will my monthly payments be?

Your monthly payment will be the amount you agree on with the PVB Parking Violations Bureau (PVB), but no less than a minimum of $10.

What if I receive a ticket while enrolled in the payment plan?

If you receive a ticket while on the payment plan, that ticket will need to be added to your balance. You will need to call the PVB with this information so that a representative can update your plan.

What happens if I miss a payment?

Always contact the PVB if you believe you will miss your payment so we can try to assist you before you miss the payment. If you miss your first payment, you will have until the end of the month to pay it. The second time you miss your second payment, you will be dropped from the program and all outstanding fees will be reapplied and you may become boot eligible.
