Parking limits are enforced rigorously on city streets near the University. Cars are towed and the fine is expensive. In the past, people have been towed even when they moved their car to another spot on the same street. You may purchase a parking permit at the Traffic and Records office in the parking garage on Walker Avenue. Hourly parking is available in the parking garage. Temporary parking permits are available at a small cost from the Parking Office, in the event that you need one for a short period.
