3.       Any additional vehicle driven on campus by student driver must be checked in before school begins in the Business Technology office.  Student driver will be issued a one-day vehicle pass for the car that must be immediately displayed in the car windshield.  Failure to do this will result in ticket/towing for an unauthorized vehicle on campus.

7.       The campus police officer can and will issue state citations for just cause.  These citations count against a driving record and carry much heavier fine limits. 

8.       If a student space is occupied by another vehicle upon arrival at school, please notify the campus police officer and/or the BT office.  Do not park in another designated space and further disrupt student parking. 

9.       The back of the parking application has other specific rules that are not covered on this sheet.  Please familiarize yourself with these rules also.
