Outside of these hours, the space owner should park in another open faculty/staff space.

    If the owner of a dedicated parking space discovers an unauthorized vehicle in their spot, they should report the unauthorized vehicle and request it to be ticketed or towed. The space owner will need to provide their name, KSU ID number, parking lot location and dedicated space number to Parking and Transportation, along with their preference to have the vehicle ticketed or towed. Also, they need to provide the color, make and model of the vehicle in the space plus its license plate number and state of issue. The space owner may leave the scene once all of the information listed above is conveyed to Parking and Transportation. The vehicle will not be ticketed or towed unless all of the information is provided.

    Parking and Transportation will immediately issue a ticket and/or request a tow truck based upon the space owner鈥檚 request. Please note that the amount of time it takes for a vehicle to be towed will vary depending upon the towing company鈥檚 availability.
