				pools shall consist of at least three participating state employees working in
				the Capitol Complex, not having the same domicile, and who normally drive their
				vehicles to work.
(1) A newly established car
				pool, meeting the requirements of this section as determined by the parking
				administration, shall be assigned a free reserved space as near as possible to
				the building in which they work, provided this would not result in the
				dislocation of any employee having a previously-assigned reserved
				space.
(2) Responsibility for the
				car pool shall be given to a designated member of the car pool, whose
				identification as such shall be recorded in the parking records. Notice to the
				designated member for any purpose set out in these sections shall be deemed
				notice to all members of the car pool.

				car pool need to drive their vehicles, the driver of the second vehicle must
				notify parking administration immediately upon arrival.
(4) Assignment of a reserved space to a car
				pool shall result in the automatic forfeiture of any previous assignment to the
				members of the car pool. Subsequent departure of a car pool member or
				dissolution of the car pool itself will not restore any parking assignment
				previously forfeited by a member.
(5) Departure of a car pool member will not
				cause automatic forfeiture of the car pool assignment unless the membership
				falls below three members and a new member cannot be found within 60 days to
				restore the car pool to the minimum qualifying number.

				will not give the individual members any right to the priority space assigned
