Depending on the weather, Plant Services will hopefully finish restriping the parking lots near Pennington, Weesner Village and Weesner House this week, in addition to the “lollipop” lot by Klages and the little Stevens lot. Projected dry days are Wednesday and Friday, but this could change.

Please don’t park in those lots on Wednesday and we will see how much gets finished. Alternate parking is available on Sheridan Street and by the tennis courts. If the lots aren’t all finished they will be completed on the next dry day, which could be Thursday or Friday. Keep an eye on Daily Bruin for more information.
