Come to the front desk of the Police Department with vehicle registration and proof of your address and a permit will be issued to your vehicle. Temporary permits can also be issued for visitors.

More times than not, it can be handled as a citation sign off at the FVPD front desk (a correction fee may be required). Our recommendation would be to bring the citation to the front desk after the violation has been corrected. Our front desk staff can look at the citation and advise you of the required next step.

Once a moving citation is issued by a police officer, the disposition of the citation is handled by the court system. If you paid a fine to the court, you need to check with them to see if your fine was received. Fountain Valley PD is not able to tell you if your check has been cashed. You may contact the Superior Court West Justice Center by calling 714-896-7111 or go to the traffic window at the court located at:
8141 13th Street
Westminster, CA 92683
