Campus Safety and Security Policies

Methods of Handling Violations

Tickets will be issued by student Security staff and Campus Safety & Security Officers. Each ticket received for violation of Handicap parking is a $100.00 fine.

Each ticket received for non-registration/expired registration is $75.00 per ticket in addition to any violations listed on the ticket.

Tickets for violators (excluding handicap parking and registration violations) are $10.00 per ticket. Notice will be sent to a violator after receiving 5 parking tickets. The student violator will be scheduled to meet with the Director of Security or his/her designee. Faculty, staff and contract employee violators will be reported to the vice president or dean in their area.

If the violator receives a sixth parking ticket and no payment has been made toward the previous accumulated parking tickets, then a wheel immobilizer (boot) will be attached to the front driver side tire preventing the vehicle from being moved. A notice will be placed on the vehicle. The Area Director will be advised by email to contact the violator to schedule a meeting with the Director of Campus Safety & Security. If the violator makes partial payment toward their unpaid ticket amount, and has a receipt of such payment, then the boot will be removed. If the violator refuses to meet with the Director of Campus Safety & Security within 72 hours of having the mmobilizer attached to the vehicle, the vehicle will be towed from campus at the owner's expense.

If the violator receives a tenth ticket for parking/traffic violations and has not made any payments toward their accumulated ticket amount, then the violator's car is towed from campus. The owner assumes all liability for the towing and storage fees. The violator is instructed to meet with the Director of Campus Safety & Security and their driving privileges are revoked until their fines have been paid in full.

All fines associated with parking/traffic tickets are accessed to the student/ employee account by CSS and/or accounting. All fines must be paid in full prior to allowing that student to register for classes for the next academic semester or prior to the issuance of lottery number for housing for the following academic year.

Ticket Appeal Policy

If you wish to appeal a parking violation, you must fill out a Ticket Appeal Request Form within 14 days of the date on the ticket. Upon completion it should be taken to the Security Department for review. Appeals are reviewed every Monday by the Director of Campus Safety & Security and a student representative. You will be notified as to whether or not your ticket has been voided or if it still stands.
