I appealed the ticket online and just received their decision in the mail:
"The Office of the Parking Clerk is informing you that the ticket(s) below cannot be dismissed for the reasons stated in your correspondence. Hearing officers cannot dismiss validly issued ticket(s), which conform, to the parking rules and regulations."
"Thus, your request for non-payment is denied. Please pay attention to this promptly to avoid further penalties. Please make payment of the amount below, within 10 days."
So the primary lesson learned is, not to forget the visitor pass next time! The secondary lesson I suppose, is that if I ever had to appeal another parking ticket, to lie. They won't show leniency to someone who is honest.
