LOT UPDATES

 

  • E-5 Construction: Consultants are reviewing the project, and will be moving forward quickly.  The plan is to start the project on 5/18 and complete prior to school starting.  We may be able to keep a rotating part of the lot open during construction, but the anticipation is that the entire lot will be closed.  The biggest impacted groups are the Library events on the 8th floor, and Faculty Staff Parking

 

  • Lot C-4 – (Band Lot) – Lot C-4 is open now it is a faculty/staff reserved lot. We are working on getting a sign for this lot as the one that was there disappeared, additionally we are in the process of having a card reader and gate installed.  Students are quite incensed about this as they feel this is their lot and have been receiving warnings for parking there.  The warnings will cease as soon as the sign is put up.

 

  • Lot C-1 – Once gate is up and functional in C-4 reserved spaces in C-1 will be removed and it will go back to a student/Senior Lot.

 

  • Lot E-1 has reopened completely

 

  • Lot C-3 Project for chemistry roof continues to have parking in that lot

 

 

  • Open comments from the committee members.
