The Vice Chancellor, after lengthy consideration accepts that the Department for Courts has the ability, in law, to enter onto and search the carparks of the University. If a wanted vehicle is located it will usually, in the first instance, be wheel clamped. Stickers indicating that the Department for Courts has clamped the car will be placed on the drivers window and windscreen. Contact details for the court will be on the stickers. The vehicle will be towed on the same day that it is clamped.
All costs incurred by the court in recovering the vehicle are recoverable from the owner.
A sandwich board will be left in the parking place so as to alert the owner of any vehicle seized and the contact details of the Collections Office. University Security staff and the Facilities Management office will be kept aware of the after hours numbers for Department for Courts staff. Please take advantage of the opportunity to pay or make arrangements to pay outstanding fines. If you make contact with the Collections Office, my staff will be only to happy to advise you of any balance you might have and make the necessary arrangements to settle any fines outstanding. Don't leave it until its too late .
