Progress continues on our parking lot repairs. We are happy to announce that we are ready to re-open the Perdido lot located at the intersection of Perdido Street and S. Roman Street.

As noted in the parking regulations, Perdido lot parking access is authorized for Graduate Students, 3rd & 4th Year Medicine Students, and assigned Roman garage faculty and staff.

The Perdido lot also offers accessible parking spaces for employees and students with mobility impairment. Vehicles parked in accessible spaces should properly display the authorized accessible permit. The accessible building entrance is the Residence Hall building with its associated elevators and accessible lift.

Employees and students choosing to park on-street should be aware of City of New Orleans parking regulations and meter enforcement. Although City of New Orleans meter enforcement may not be regularly visible at this time, meter enforcement citations have been reported by staff.

Should you have any questions or need assistance of any kind, please feel free to contact Parking Services at park or 568-4884.

Thank you for your cooperation.

We are pleased to announce the re-opening of Student lot 3 on Perdido Street. Student lot 3 is available to registered students and student workers with general parking access.

The lot formerly designated as Student lot 5 will be re-designated as Student lot 1. At this time, Student lots 1, 2, and 3 are open for student parking. Student housing residents will utilize parking in the Residence Hall lot or Gravier St. Garage (Stanislaus Hall).

Lot T is now repaired and access will be restricted to approved registered parkers. Additional parking access controls and electronics will be repaired in the near future and the respective parking lots re-opened.

Abundant visitor parking is available adjacent to campus buildings, in the form of on-street parking and private pay lots.

Parking lot authorization is identified by the unique color strips for the various parking facilities. Parkers that switched assigned parking facilities (such as Gravier garage to Roman garage) should be properly displaying the appropriate decal. Parking lot enforcement will resume shortly. Parking regulations will be monitored and warning citations will be issued for the first violation until Labor Day. After which, violations will be fined. Parking regulations may be reviewed here.

We anticipate a lighting improvement project in the student lots will begin in the near future. There may be small sections of the lots secured at times as poles are removed and re-installed at the designated points.

Should you have any questions or need assistance of any kind, please feel free to contact Parking Services at park or 568-4884.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Effective June 1, 2006, parking fees will be re-instated for parking privileges in New Orleans parking facilities. Faculty and staff should complete the parking payroll deduction form and email to park or sign and fax to 504-568-2116 to indicate your authorization for payroll deduction. Please designate your parking deduction preference as pre-tax or taxable.

In the month of June, everyone authorizing a parking deduction will be deducted once for the full monthly amount on the last paycheck for the month of June. Thereafter, bi-weekly employees will receive their deductions pro-rated on a bi-weekly basis.

If you prefer to pay an annual lump sum amount (FY07 amount plus June 2006), you may pay the full amount (check only). Please return the form or make payment by June 1, 2006. Business managers should notify their departmental student workers (student workers should contact Parking Services regarding their fees). Should you choose to hand deliver your form, payment or need personal assistance, the office of Parking Services will be occupying temporary space in the CSRB Building (533 Bolivar), Room 265 effective May 22nd. Parking fees may be viewed here.

The following secured parking facilities are anticipated to be available June 1 for registered parkers: Roman St. Garage, Gravier St. Garage, and Student lot 5. Faculty and staff will have access to the Roman St. Garage or Gravier St. Garage based upon garage assignment. Registered students will have access to Student lot 5 and Roman Street Garage (only until Student lot 2 becomes available in near future). Student housing residents will utilize parking in the Residence Hall lot or Gravier St. Garage (Stanislaus Hall). Parking lot authorization is identified by the unique color strips for the various parking facilities. As access controls and electronics are repaired and additional lots opened, parking access privileges will be modified.

Should you have any questions or need assistance of any kind, please feel free to contact Parking Services at park or 568-4884.

Thank you for your cooperation.
