Parking Rules & Regulations

Restricted Areas

Possession of a valid parking permit does not allow anyone to park illegally even if there are no parking spaces available. Stalls marked with the following designations are restricted and require an appropriate permit:

• Commercial Vehicle Parking
• Handicapped Parking
• Loading Zone
• Permit Issued by Auxiliary Services Required
• Parking, Permit Required

Parking Regulations

All parking regulations are in effect year round. All drivers must abide by the applicable rules and regulations if they wish to drive and park on campus.

The regulations, including maps, may be viewed online, are posted on campus bulletin boards, and available at the Auxiliary Services Office. Parking is permitted only in areas marked and specified for parking. For more information, see KCC Parking Rules and Regulations below.

Towing of Cars

Towing signs are posted in the parking lots. Vehicles will be ticketed and subject to towing if they are parked:

• In any way that obstructs traffic;
• In a restricted stall without a permit;
• On the grass, dirt, or other landscaped areas;
• Blocking a fire hydrant, driveway, or crosswalk;
• Totally or within any portion of a red curb.

If in doubt about where to park, call Campus Security prior to parking.

Vehicles violating any of the parking regulations are subject to towing. After five (5) violations (paid or unpaid), a vehicle will be towed for each subsequent violation. Towed vehicles (including motorcycles, mopeds, etc.) may be claimed at Stone's Towing, located at 611 Middle Street, 808.847.1136. All towed vehicles are removed from campus at the owner's expense.

Parking Citations

Payment should be made at the Kekaulike Information and Service Center (KISC) cashier's counter within seven (7) days of the violation.

An appeal may be filed within 30 days with the Director of Administrative Services after payment of the fine. Failure to pay citations may result in a financial obligation against the registered owner of the vehicle.
