Avoid a citation
Parking Services will be working to educate the community on the updates and taking a warning-first approach.
ALWAYS check in via ParkMobile app or kiosk when you first arrive to park. (Even if you only plan on staying a short time.)
No backing into parking spaces!
If parking in a handicapped space, ensure the placard is displayed and clearly visible. No time limits exist at handicapped spaces, but spaces will be metered starting March 3.
