Unregistered Vehicles and Booting:
Addressing the issue of unregistered vehicles, we’re implementing a new booting process to enforce Transportation and Parking Regulations. Approximately 34% of fall 2023 citations were issued to unregistered vehicles. Here’s what you need to know:
- Vehicles with multiple citations may be booted. If your vehicle is booted, you cannot drive it until the boot is removed at Campus Safety. Payment of outstanding citations is NOT required for boot removal, but you must provide your contact information.
- Register and pay for a spring parking permit via the parking portal.
- T&P will void up to 2 citations (excluding ADA and Fire Lane citations) for registering your unregistered vehicle and purchasing a spring parking permit.
- Enforcement begins in January 2024.
