318.325 Jurisdiction and procedure for parking infractions.--Any county or municipality may adopt an ordinance that allows the county or municipality to refer cases involving the violation of a county or municipal parking ordinance to a hearing officer designated to preside over civil traffic infractions in the county. Notwithstanding the provisions of ss. 318.14 and 775.08(3), any parking violation shall be deemed to be an infraction as defined in s. 318.13(3).

The clerk of the court or the designated traffic violations bureau must collect and distribute the fines, forfeitures, and court costs assessed under this section. Notwithstanding the provisions of s. 318.21, fines and forfeitures received from parking violations committed within the unincorporated areas of the county or within the boundaries of the municipality must be collected and paid monthly to the county or municipality, respectively. Court costs assessed by the hearing officer must be paid to the county.
