People In Las Vegas Can Pay Parking Tickets By Purchasing School Supplies

Las Vegas has devised a unique way that people can pay their parking tickets: by purchasing supplies for local schools.


The Las Vegas City Council has decided that drivers with parking citations and non-public safety citations which need to be paid, will be able to donate new school supplies to satisfy traffic courts through July 19th, 2019, as the Las Vegas Sun reported.


The donations have to be worth as much or more than the fine and be accompanied by a sales receipt, according to officials.


The supplies can include pencils, pens, paper towels, rulers, dry erase markers, storage bins, and post-it notes, among other acceptable supplies.


Donations will go to the Teachers Exchange, which is a local nonprofit organization associated with the Public Education District. They’ll be distributed among classroom throughout the Clark County School District.


In July 2016, the city authorized the program, that sometimes allows charitable donations to be given instead of cash payments for parking fines.


Schools find themselves short on supplies, with lots of educators being forced to dig into their own pockets year after year to make sure their students receive the adequate gear needed to get through their semesters.


A recent survey showed that nearly all (94%) of USA public school teachers spend their money on their pupils amid teachers’ complaints concerning inadequate pay and a need for dignified salaries.


The move by the Las Vegas City Council shows a novel approach to the crisis of the under-funding facing schools today, and ensures that parking ticket revenue which would typically end up in the city’s general fund will go toward improving the education quality of local students instead.


If you happen to be in Vegas and end up with a parking ticket, pay up by buying some school supplies! The teachers and youth will be grateful.
