Changes Made For Parking Tickets 

Changes begin tomorrow for anyone who wants to challenge parking tickets in Winnipeg.

A second level of review by a provincially appointed adjudicator will also be available if a driver wants to contest the ticket further.

The city says the changes are required by the province under the Municipal Bylaw Enforcement Act, which comes into effect tomorrow.
