Winter Parking Ban on its way
With November upon us, the campus community should be on alert for the annual Winter Parking Ban. The WPB commences either at the first declared snow emergency in November, or automatically Dec. 1, whichever occurs first. Once underway, it continues through March 31. Under the WPB, most lots are closed to after-midnight parking every night, regardless of weather conditions through 6 a.m. the following mornings. Limited parking is available in "exempt" areas, and conditionally available in "weather-conditional" lots B and C. The status of the WPB is announced on a voice mail recording available by dialing 862-1001.
