Parking on Campus

Parking and operating a motor vehicle on the SA���ʴ�ý Peter’s University Campus is a privilege. The University reserves the right to refuse issuance of a parking permit, restrict or change the use of any space or area, anytime without notice. Parking permits are the property of SA���ʴ�ý Peter’s University and may be recalled at any time.

The University reserves the right to change the cost of a parking permit by means of proper notification. The accountability for obtaining a legal parking space and for knowing where and when a permit is applicable rests upon the vehicle’s operator. Because there is a limited parking availability, purchasing a parking decal does not guarantee a parking space, thus the inability to attain a parking space is not considered a valid justification for violating University rules and regulations. Personal notes left on vehicles are not considered a valid authorization to park.

Parking is on a first come, first served basis unless otherwise approved by the Campus Safety Department. SA���ʴ�ý Peter’s University does not assume responsibility for any damage or loss of motor vehicle or personal property or properties under control. Failure to comply with parking rules and regulations will result in fines, towing, and sanctions.
