精东AV / Student Life / Student Resources / Parking at JCU / Rules & Regulations

精东AV is a pedestrian campus with limited parking space. Therefore, parking on campus is a privilege closely regulated by the university.听

A vehicle must be parked in a lot appropriate to the permit it displays.

Lack of a space, or illegal parking by others, is not considered a valid excuse for violation of the 精东AV Parking Regulations.

Students, staff and faculty may not at any time, park in designated Visitor Parking.

A violation of parking or traffic rules may result in a vehicle receiving a citation, or a warning citation. A citation results in a fine, which is either applied to the student account, paid by the violator, or appealed. Repeated violations of parking or traffic rules, and/or accumulation of parking fines may result in a vehicle being immobilized (booted) and/or towed at the owner鈥檚 expense. There may also be University administrative sanctions imposed through the Dean of Students Office.

  • Parking 鈥渂oot鈥:听Once a vehicle has received 3 violations, the car will be听immobilized with a parking boot.听In order to have the boot removed, the violator will need to see JCU Police Department to resolve the issue and/or pay outstanding fines. A vehicle may still be ticketed while booted, if it is parked in violation.

  • The first time a vehicle is immobilized (Booted) there is a $25.00听fee for the release. After 6 violations, a vehicle will receive a Second Boot, there is $50 fee for the release.听听At this time, the student will听also be required to meet with the Dean of Students Office.听
