I got a ticket once on a meter on one of the side streets off
University, just east of Broadway.  I had an hour on the meter, got
back 50 minutes later, and had an expired meter and a ticket.  I wrote
to the city (enclosing the unpaid ticket), told them I put money in at
12:23 p.m. and came back at 1:13 p.m. to find it expired, and told
them I was not paying the ticket.  I never heard another peep out of
them ...

The pen really is mightier than the sword.  Try writing to them.
