MMC PARKING ISSUES 

To date there have been approximately 150 ‘WARNING’ parking tickets issued on campus.  Most of these have been issued to students who have not yet gotten their FREE parking sticker from the Business Office.  Please take your license number and make and model of your vehicle to the Business Office to request your free parking sticker.  Parking stickers are to be placed in the lower right hand corner of your windshield.  All vehicles parked on Mount Marty Campus are REQUIRED to have a parking permit whether you are a resident student, commuter student, faculty, or staff.  Once the “warning” period has expired, fines will be issued at $25.00 for general parking violations and $50.00 for fire lane violations.  Thank you!  MMC Facilities Department
