Queens College Public Safety Department Parking and Traffic Regulations:

Parking on the Queens College campus is by decal only. To be parked on college property, all vehicles must be registered with the Public Safety Office. Unregistered vehicles or vehicles parked in violation of the Parking and Traffic Regulations in this notice are subject to both ticketing and immobilization (“booting”). A $75 fee will be charged for removal of the immobilization boot in addition to the parking violation penalty for the ticket(s).

*Please note: Students/faculty/staff must park in their assigned fields.

 Regulations:

 The following regulations govern parking privileges and should be read by everyone who parks on campus.

Illegally parked vehicles that interfere with the movement of traffic, or those with excessive violations, are subject to immobilization. Owners are charged a $75 service fee for the removal of “boot.”

Parking on campus is at the owner’s risk. The registered driver is responsible for the use of the vehicle on campus. The college is NOT responsible for loss or damage to any registered or other vehicles, their contents, or equipment. The fee provides only the privilege of parking on campus on a space-available basis.

1.  Students are allowed to purchase only one parking decal for one vehicle. 
   – Car registration must be in the family name or same address.
2. Decals are NOT transferable to other persons or other vehicles. Parking privileges will be REVOKED, without refund, for failure to observe this regulation.
3.  Unauthorized use of a Parking Decal: All parking permits must be purchased from the Public Safety office in Jefferson Hall, room 201.
   If you purchased a parking decal from anywhere/anyone other than the Public Safety office in Jefferson Hall, room 201, the decal is NULL and VOID. Individuals will be subjected to disciplinary charges.
4. Parking on campus is at the driver’s risk. The registered driver is responsible for the use of the vehicle on campus. The college is not responsible for loss or damage to any registered or other vehicles, its contents, or equipment. The fee provides only the privilege of parking on campus on a space-available basis.
5. Decals must be for the current year and properly displayed. Decals for students must be affixed to the LOWER RIGHT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD (opposite the registration and inspection sticker). Decals for faculty/staff must be affixed to the back of the rear-view mirror. Your decal will be void if it is removed from your windshield or rearview mirror. Expired decals MUST be removed. DECALS THAT ARE NOT PROPERLY AFFIXED WILL BE CONFISCATED. Using tape or any method other than that specified on the decal is unacceptable and shall be considered a violation of these regulations. Cars NOT exhibiting a proper decal or special pass from the Public Safety Office are subject to ticketing and “booting,” as noted above.
6. Replacement decals:
   a)   Lost, stolen, or destroyed decals will NOT be replaced.
   b)   A replacement decal for a new vehicle may be purchased for $25 after the old sticker is brought to Public Safety in Jefferson Hall, Room 201.
   c)    Lost or stolen control gate passes will be replaced upon payment of an additional $25 fee after the Public Safety Office verifies the loss.
7. Tickets are issued for failure to park in the assigned field or within the lines of demarcation. Please take a look at the campus map, which indicates field locations.
8. Parking is prohibited on roadways, in loading zones, and in any area not specifically designated for parking. These areas must be kept clear for the normal movement of traffic, fire apparatus and other emergency vehicles, college vehicles, and delivery trucks. Vehicles parked on roads or in fire lanes, obstructing fire hydrants or crosswalks, or creating a hazardous condition are subject to ticketing and “booting.” Handicapped spaces are reserved for those issued appropriate passes.
9. Parking on or driving around the Quadrangle is prohibited. The areas in front of Remsen Hall, Jefferson Hall, Kiely Hall, and the FitzGerald Gymnasium are reserved for authorized vehicles.

Cars not displaying a proper decal/special pass or parked so as to create a hazardous condition will be “booted.” A $75 service fee must be paid before the vehicle will be released. For information, contact the Public Safety Office at the Main Gate (718-997-5911/5912).
12. Vehicles are to be operated on campus with extreme caution and at NO MORE THAN 5 miles per hour. Pedestrians have the right of way at all times.

14. Overnight parking (after 11 pm) on campus is strictly prohibited unless you have a Summit parking decal. In an emergency, specific arrangements must be made with the Public Safety Office JH201 or, after office hours, with the Public Safety Office at the Main Gate by calling 718-997-5912. Student parking ends at 11 pm unless otherwise authorized.
15. In the event of a severe snowstorm, cars that cannot be driven home should be moved, if possible, to the edges of the fields to facilitate snow removal. Drivers should avoid parking their cars on campus after a snowstorm until the areas are cleared. The superintendent of Buildings & Grounds is authorized to restrict parking on campus during a snow emergency.

19. Free parking is available during the summer term for students who have registered in one of the three summer sessions and is allowed from June to August only. Students are still required to complete an application and obtain a decal. If you have purchased an annual parking decal, parking during the summer term is permitted, and you do not have to obtain a separate decal.

 Enforcement:

Public Safety Officers and uniformed guards are assigned to reserve the parking areas for authorized vehicles. Drivers are expected to cooperate with the guards and to assist them in carrying out their assignments.

Penalties for violation of these regulations, subject to appeal as described below, are as follows:

Parking with no decal/pass: $50
Illegal parking in handicapped space: $50
All other violations: $25

Fines must be paid at the Security Office JH 201. Failure to pay a fine within 10 days will result in an additional penalty of $10. Failure to pay within 20 days adds another $10 penalty. In addition to monetary penalties, failure to pay after 20 days may result in cancellation of parking privileges, denial of future right to purchase a decal, “booting,” blocking of registration and release of diplomas and transcripts for students, and disciplinary action. Faculty and staff members who fail to pay after 20 days may be subject to cancellation of parking privileges, denial of future right to purchase a decal, and “booting.”
