Last day to pay your ticket with a toy

December 3, 2009

(Red Deer, Alberta) – Tomorrow is the last day to pay your parking ticket with a toy as part of The City’s Toys for Tickets program.

Citizens who received parking tickets between November 1 and December 4 can donate a toy in lieu of payment for their ticket. All toys will be donated to the 2009 Red Deer Christmas Bureau to help them meet their goal that no child wakes up without a toy on Christmas morning.

Toy donations in lieu of parking tickets will be accepted December 3 and 4 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on the first floor of City Hall.

All toys must be new and unwrapped in their original packaging. The early payment rate will remain in effect when the ticket is paid for with a toy; however, the value of the toy must equal or exceed the amount owed on the parking ticket. A receipt must be presented at the time of payment, and if the toy is valued lower than the price of the ticket, the difference must be paid.

For more information about the Toys for Tickets program please contact Inspections & Licensing at 403-342-8185.
