Parking ticket help

I got a parking ticket in the city of Detroit. The ticket was suppose to be handled by the owner of the building I was doing work for and never did. Regardless, I looked at my credit report today,(That was crystal clear), and A collection was on there for the $80 parking ticket from Professional Account Management. So I called the collection(I know I shouldn't have) company and said "I will pay this today, if you delete if from my report". Of course they said they could not do that only show it was payed. So I called the city of Detroit and they said they signed the dept off to the collection agency, but I could still make payment to them and they would notify the collection agency? How can they do this? How do I pay this and get it off my credit. Also can a parking ticket even be put on your credit report. Should I request the collection agency validate it?

1. don't be upset, Bump your post if you don't get a response. you have done this, but you could offend the people you need help from. now I ask all the same questions.

do you have all your credit reports?
what state are you in? this happened in Michigan but do you still live there?
what is the original creditor (city of Detroit) and the name of the CA? (Professional Account Management
what is the date of first delinquency? 30 days after last payment

this information will help me make suggestions specific to your case. The state will determine the statue of limitations for this debt. knowing the name of the OC original creditor, will help show if there is a specific govt regulators can intervene. Knowing the dates are very important.
