All parking on the College of the Redwoods campuses is at the discretion of the vehicle operator. College of the Redwoods assumes no liability for loss or damage incurred by any vehicle or its contents while on college property. Additionally, all parking on the Eureka campus is by permit only.

Permits are purchased from the Security Office.

Purchase of a parking permit does not guarantee that a parking space will be available in the area desired. A student parking permit authorizes the purchaser to park in any general parking area on campus.

Parking is permitted in special purpose parking as indicated:

Lots/spaces identified with markings of:

RED....................................................no parking
BLUE. ......................................................disabled
YELLOW. .......................................loading zone
GREEN. ...........................................staff parking
WHITE. .......................................short-term medical disability

Any other areas as indicated.

Special purpose parking permits are available through Security to permit loading and unloading or for commercial service vehicles providing service to computers, copiers, other equipment or construction on campus. Visitors permits are also available at Public Services/Security.

Permits - Eureka Campus

Vehicles without permits will be cited. Permits must be displayed hanging face out from the rearview mirror or placed on the lower driver’s side windshield facing out. Students may place as many vehicles as they wish on their parking permit, but a tag displayed in a vehicle which has not been registered with Security may result in a citation. This helps to reduce the likelihood of parking permit theft.

Citations

Citations issued on campus are enforceable by the Fortuna Police Department and the D.M.V.

Five or more unpaid citations make a vehicle eligible for towing or immobilization in accordance with California state law. It is against department policy for citations to be voided by a student worker once issued. Only the Director of Security may void a citation when the citation is properly appealed.

Motorist Assistance Program

As a courtesy the Security vehicles are equipped to assist motorists who have locked themselves out of the vehicle, are in need of a jump start or have run out of gas. Security personnel will supervise the changing of a flat tire. Each situation and vehicle differs, and the responding officer may be forced to recommend outside commercial assistance for some vehicles or situations.

Skateboards/ Wheeled Toys

Board of Trustees Policy No. 805 prohibits use of skateboards and/or other wheeled toys on campus. First time offenders will be warned. Subsequent offenses will be cited and referred to the Associate Vice President, Student Learning Support Services for disciplinary action.

Domestic Animals on Campus

Domestic animals or livestock (including dogs and cats) are not allowed on campus. Exceptions are animals used in an instruction program of the college or animals certified for service to assist the disabled and under control of the owner. Lost and stray animals and animals left unattended in vehicles will be referred to the appropriate Animal Control agency for removal from the campus grounds.
