			 permission from DAS. Motor Vehicles that have broken down in a Parking Facility
			 and that cannot be removed must be reported immediately to DAS. Inoperable
			 Motor Vehicles must be removed from the Parking Facility within 24 hours or
			 will be subject to removal at the owner's expense. Bicycles stored in violation
			 of this section are subject to the process in OAR 125-090-0150. Other personal
			 property stored or abandoned at a Parking Facility longer than five consecutive
			 days will be considered unclaimed property under State law and subject to

			 people and goods, not to exceed 15 minutes unless otherwise posted.

			 elected officials and for persons engaged in official DAS business and as
			 authorized under OAR 125-090-0160(2), no State Employee may Park a Motor
			 Vehicle for free at any Parking Facility. DAS may require application for a
			 special Permit that must be displayed properly for statewide elected officials
			 to Park for free at the metered spaces within the Capitol Mall Parking
			 Area.
(p) State Employees may use
			 metered Visitor spaces at the employee's Work Location with proper payment. DAS
			 may issue a special monthly Permit to State Employees for this purpose.
(q) DAS may set motor Vehicle size
			 restrictions. Motor Vehicles and any attached equipment must fit into the
			 Parking space, leave sufficient room for adjacent Parkers to easily access
			 their Motor Vehicles, and may not impede Motor Vehicle and pedestrian
			 circulation within the Parking Facility. DAS reserves the right to decline
			 issue of a Permit, rescind a Permit, or move any Motor Vehicle deemed to be
			 unsafe (including towing) that exceeds the size of the Parking space, or
			 exceeds the ability of the Parking Facility to safely house the Motor
			 Vehicle.
(r) DAS limits to six, in
			 any ninety-day period, the number of times that a State Employee assigned a
			 Permit may call in to be authorized by Motor Vehicle license to Park without
			 displaying the Permit. An authorization by DAS to Park without displaying a
			 Permit is invalid if the numbered Permit for the lot is found displayed at the
			 same time in another Motor Vehicle in any DAS Parking Facility. The Motor
			 Vehicle that is NOT displaying the Permit will be subject to
			 citation.
(s) Vehicles must be
			 Parked head-in at all angled Parking spaces.
