First, cut off your caps lock.

Second, take all your documentation to court when you go; you may get it lowered.

However, you are definitely guilty since you had no right to park there.

As well you might apply for a temporary HC permit.

The cite was for parking in the handicapped parking space without a handicapped permit/placard. As mentioned above, obtain said placard and things may work out okay for you. Otherwise, you'll have to pay the fine.
