The Daily Bruin

The Office of Campus Public Safety has given a week of warnings for everybody to find out where they should park, and tickets start this week! If you are still unsure about where your permit allows you to park, come immediately to the CPS office to find out before you are ticketed.

All commuters and grad students were automatically charged $100 for the fall semester, but you still need to register for a parking permit on MyGFU. After finishing that, print out the temporary permit from the link sent to you and place that on your dashboard; it will serve as your permit until your permit arrives in one to three weeks. A parking brochure will arrive with your permit, so be certain to look at it on the CPS website to know where you can park until then.

Here are a few more parking policies to be aware of:

• All cars with Austin permits must stay in the Austin lot between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. If you bring your car on campus during the evening, it must be returned to the Austin lot by 7 a.m.
• CPS officers are seeing many cars not parking on the side of the road in the direction of travel, especially on Sheridan and Center streets. This is a ticketable offense for the Newberg Police Department, so please point your car in the direction of traffic to avoid an expensive ticket. Blocking mailboxes or driveways also brings a hefty fine from the police, and we know that you have better things to do with your money!
• Permits that have been sent to your George Fox post office box will NOT be in your mailbox; you need to sign for them at Mail Services.
• Permits ideally should be affixed to the outside of your vehicle’s back window, not taped on the inside. Please don’t place them on your car’s painted surfaces, as they are difficult to safely remove.
• Staff and faculty: Please remember to put your campus PO box number as your “mailing address” when registering on MyGFU, as all permits are sent via campus mail.
• If you registered for your permit in July or very early August and it still hasn’t arrived at your mailing address, please come to the CPS office so we can track it down.

Questions? Please contact Campus Public Safety at 503-554-2090 or email Nadine Kincaid at nkincaid@georgefox.edu.
