After the closure of the center, parking in metered lot #349 and along East Drive will return to normal, requiring payment or proper permits on Monday, July 9.
The center will be housed in Johnson Hall and is expected to be open for at least three weeks. To accommodate fire victims, there will be changes to parking for employees and other guests.
Beginning Thursday, June 14, there will be no parking on East Drive from University Avenue to the Oval and in the meter lot behind the Administration building. Mobile insurance vehicles will be parked on East Drive to help fire victims file claims.
This closure will include:
Experts who providing services to fire victims in the Disaster Recovery Center will receive temporary permits to park in lots near Johnson Hall.
In addition, a portion of the Moby parking lot has been reserved for fire engines and fire official vehicles while fire fighters who are fighting the High Park fire are resting in university residence halls.
Employees and visitors who normally park in lot #349 can park in the meter area of lot #440 or in the “Z” area of lot #440. Lot #440 is on the southeast corner of Mason Street and University Avenue. Additional parking is available in any of the “Z” lots on campus.
