Participants need to indicate their first, second and third choices for parking arrangements. We will close it on Friday, June 11. E-mail notification of parking assignments will be made on Wednesday, June 16. Participants in the first round of the lottery were told of their new parking assignments on May 19. Based on this first round, some parking areas already have filled up, including the Rockhurst garage and the Xavier, Georgetown, Canisius, Crumpler, Connolly and Schwitalla lots.
Spaces still remain in all other parking garages and other lots.
Registration forms may be mailed or dropped off at the Frost campus parking and card services office in DuBourg Hall, Room 33 or at the HSC Parking and Card Services office on the 4th floor, Bordley. In other parking news, a change has been made to the Parking Choice Program that was announced this spring. No additional application will be required. At its meeting in may, the executive committee of the board of trustees discussed the parking issue extensively, with particular attention to the desirability of using operating budget funds or endowment funds to defray a part of the cost of the parking system. Following the discussion, the executive committee formally supported the fiscal year 2000 operating budget that already provides a modest subsidy to the parking system, and declined to further subsidize the parking system beyond the budgeted level.
