Motor Vehicle, Traffic and Parking Regulations
All students who possess, maintain, or operate motor vehicles (including motorcycles, motorbikes, motor scooters, or any other motor-driven vehicle) shall register each motor vehicle to be operated on the college campus and obtain the appropriate car registration sticker(s). Students' vehicles must be parked in areas designated as Student Parking Lots ONLY.
The operation of motor vehicles on campus roadways and the registering of motor vehicles for the purpose of obtaining parking permits to park in college parking lots are to be considered privileges and not rights of individuals. Lehigh Carbon Community College reserves the right to deny or revoke such privileges at any time to any and all persons who fail to adhere to these regulations.
All vehicles used by students are encouraged to have a registration sticker displayed on the rear window. Students may register more than one car. The sticker number enables the security officer to identify and notify the vehicle's owner in case of any problem with the vehicle.
This registration shall be done at the same time a student registers for classes. If the student is unable to register his vehicle at this time, he/she may return the registration card to the Student Information Desk when properly completed. It is the student's responsibility to notify personnel at the Student Information Desk of any change of status with regard to motor vehicle registration. Parking stickers are issued free of charge.
Faculty and staff must have either a parking hand tag or placard when parking at LCCC. Regular faculty and staff will be issued one hang tag. It is the responsibility of the individual to transfer the hang tag from one car to another if need be. Temporary staff, adjunct faculty and noncredit instructors will be issued parking placards. The hang tags and placards must be visibly displayed when parking in any faculty/staff lots or spaces on campus. The hang tags and placards are available at the Office of Campus Security and Safety.
ParkingParking lots are patrolled regularly (this includes weekends and holidays), and each person is expected to park in accordance with rules and regulations. Report unsafe conditions to the Security and Safety Office immediately.
At no time may vehicles be parked in unauthorized and prohibited areas such as on lawns and walkways, or in a manner that constitutes double parking, the blocking of walkways, roadways, or fire zones, etc.
The college reserves the right to alter parking assignments on a permanent or temporary basis when new construction, major repairs, and emergency situations require such changes.
No persons shall abandon a motor vehicle of any kind on college property. Should any vehicle parked on campus become disabled, the owner/driver of that vehicle shall report the condition to the Office of Security and Safety immediately. Vehicles requiring repairs shall be tended to by the owner/driver within 24 hours. Vehicles parked under the above-stated regulations for more than 48 hours may be towed away and stored at the expense of the owner/driver.
