A few things that you should know about Parking:

Our philosophy  All of the costs of operating our parking lots are shared by those who park on our property.  We fund everything through the sale of parking permits and the collection of parking meter money.

Parking permits and parking meters. When your vehicle displays a current, valid parking permit for the lot in which you are parked, or when you have "money in the meter", you are paying your share of the cost of operating the parking lots.

Best values.  Are you trying to make your parking dollars stretch further? We have a few suggestions.

Walk a Bit Further, Get in Some Exercise and Save!
Our green parking lots are the least expensive on campus. They're located a bit further from the main campus buildings than the blue, orange, brown or yellow lots, but not too far.
Check out the parking lot site plan for locations, and apply on-line beginning August 27, 2012 
•  Buy for the Long-term: Three Semesters for Less than the Price of Two!
  When you buy an annual permit you get three semesters for less than the price of two!  That means that you can take advantage of the Fitness Centre all summer long without worrying about parking fees!Only on Campus Occasionally? Try a Smart Card!
  Smart cards save you more than 30% on the cost of a single day permit. Visit the Bookstore to purchase a 20 entry smart card.
• On Campus for the Day? Day permits are your best value.
  For trips to campus of 4 hours or more, a day permit, purchased from the parking kiosk located east of our Golf Links entrance is your best value.

Barrier-free parking on campus. There are barrier-free parking spaces located in most parking lots on campus.

To park in a non-metered, barrier-free space, you'll need a green Confederation College parking permit, and either a Ministry of Transportation Accessible Parking Pass, or a College Special Parking Pass.

(It doesn't matter if the barrier-free space is in a green, orange, yellow, blue, or brown lot, a green permit with a barrier-free pass gives you access to the space.)

To park at a barrier-free metered parking space, you'll need to have money in the meter, and an MTO Accessible Parking Pass, or a College Special Parking Pass.Navigating campus: where can I park?

Match the colour of your permit to the colour of the lot!  Your parking permit is colour-coded to correspond with the colour of the parking lot in which it is valid.

In addition, blue, orange, brown and yellow parking permits allow access to green lots.

Not sure of the colour of the lot in which you are parking? Check the "colour circle" on the lot signs. (Check the parking lot site plan.)

A few words of caution ...

Authorized use. Permit-holders are not allowed to re-sell, loan or transfer their permits to anyone else, for any reason.

And then there's "the fine print".

Yes, we issue parking tickets. Because we expect everyone who shares the use of our parking lots to pay their share, we issue parking tickets to vehicles that don't appear to be in compliance with the parking permit and meter requirements of our Traffic and Parking Regulations.

(We also issue parking tickets for other reasons. For example, if you park on the lawn, or you park on a pedestrian crosswalk.)

We're happy to discuss your parking concerns. If you get a parking ticket and you don't understand why you received it, please come in and discuss it with us. We'd be happy to help you solve the problem, so that you don't get another ticket. Our office is in Shuniah Room B106 (Facilities Services).

In any case, please don't ignore your tickets, as it can get costly.

And, yes, we also tow vehicles. Sometimes folks who receive parking tickets choose to ignore them. In those cases, we do tow vehicles.

(Just a note: towing can be very costly, as you'll need to pay your parking tickets, pay the towing company and then obtain a parking permit in order to continue parking on campus. It's best to come in and discuss your parking tickets with us, rather than ignoring them.)
