FINES

The first eight violations face a fine of $15.00 and Parking in handicapped area fine is $50.00.

Fines are paid at the campus cashier’s offices.

Student appeals are through student services.

Unpaid fines will result in holds on transcripts, diplomas or registration.

Campus maps and parking lot signs indicate where drivers may park. Students are prohibited from parking in designated staff lots.

Designated disabled parking spaces are reserved for persons who are permanently disabled. To use these spaces, students must have a special handicap permit issued by the local county license tag office.

Parking is prohibited after 11:00 PM, unless Public Safety Department has received prior notification.

The absence of “No Parking” signs does not mean that parking is allowed. Parking on the grass, along roadways, drives, curbs, sidewalks or ramps is prohibited. Parking is permitted only in paved lots or in designated parking areas.  Vehicles must be parked within marked spaces. Parking diagonally or taking up two parking spaces is not permitted.

The speed limit on campus is 30 m.p.h. unless otherwise posted. Speed limit in all parking lots or service drives is 5 m.p.h.

Moving violations, i.e., speeding, reckless driving, etc. may be referred to an appropriate law enforcement agency.

Students who receive parking citations must pay the appropriate fine to the Edison State College Cashier Office within 14 working days. Students wishing to contest the fine must submit a written appeal within 14 working days to the Student Court.  Any student who does not pay a parking fine will not receive transcripts and will not be permitted to register for classes until the fine is paid.

Parking Ticket Appeals

If a student chooses to appeal a ticket for violating the campus traffic regulations, he or she should contact the Office of Student Life on campus. If the student wants to appeal the decision, he or she may choose to have a hearing in front of the Student Government Association Student Court for a final decision. The Student Traffic Court may uphold the ticket violation, modify the charge or overturn the charge.
