The number of accessible parking spaces on campus is limited. Do not use an accessible parking space unless you have a permit issued in your name. Maryland law requires all persons having a permit to display it on the rear-view mirror and to carry with them the application for the permit.
The law and college policy give a police officer, or any other person authorized by a political subdivision the authority enforces, to enforce this. College Public Safety and Police officers have the right to ask anyone parked in a disabled space to show the application for the permit. If you cannot produce the application, or the application is in someone else's name, the officer will advise you to move your vehicle from the space. Any person who violates the provisions of this section of the motor vehicle law is guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a fine.
Temporary handicap parking permits can be obtained through Public Safety and Police for students, faculty or staff who have physical disabilities but lack state-issued license plates or hang tags. A physician's written statement will be required.
Students are not issued parking permits.
Faculty and staff must properly display current parking permits, when parking in a faculty/staff permitted space, on the vehicles they park at the college each day. Faculty and staff permits are available in the Public Safety and Police office. The cost of replacement is $10. Permits are provided and administered by the Department of Public Safety and Police.
All lost, stolen or destroyed permits must be reported immediately to Public Safety and Police. If you find a permit you had reported lost or stolen, return it to Public Safety and Police. Such permits are considered revoked; a vehicle may be ticketed and towed if it displays a revoked permit. The college reserves the right to revoke/recall a parking permit at any time.
Faculty/staff permits must be hung and displayed from the rearview mirror, with the number facing forward and clearly visible through the windshield.
