Parking Enforcement

Parking permits are NOT required during the summer.

Parking permits in red and blue lots are enforced from 7 am to 4 pm, Monday through Friday, excluding University holidays. All other violations, including those in the following areas, are enforced 24/7, 365 days a year:

  • Maintenance Stalls
  • Red Zone
  • Handicap Stalls
  • Sidewalks
  • Restricted Areas
  • University Housing Parking Lots

Tickets are issued per violation. One ticket is issued per 24 hour period, as long as the vehicle is in the same parking lot committing the same violation. If the vehicle moves and another violation is committed, a second ticket may be issued.

The University administration reserves the right to change designated use of roadways or parking lots at any time to provide for special parking needs.
