Pursuant to the authority granted by RCW 28B.50.140(10), the board of trustees of Community College District No. 1 empowers the president or designee to make rules and regulations for pedestrian and vehicular traffic on property owned, operated, or maintained by the college district.

Employees requesting assigned parking are required to register and display parking permits on their vehicles.

All employees with assigned parking and all students will pay fees for campus parking. Fees for parking will be established by the board of trustees.

Parking spaces reserved for visitors are designated. Staff and student vehicles, regardless of registration, are not permitted to park in these areas. Unauthorized vehicles parked in violation may be towed away and impounded at the expense of the operator.
