停车常见问题解答
P发出火花的常见问题
Why are parking regulations changing?
The changes are designed to accomplish four key goals: (1) to provide a more predictable parking experience; (2) to ensure adequate parking, evenly distributed across campus; (3) to advance the pedestrian friendly nature of campus; and (4) to enhance the visitor parking experience.
What changes are being made for commuters?
The primary change is that when purchasing a parking tag, commuters will have the option to select a designated zone, based on their parking and fee preferences. A commuter hang tag will be issued for each zone, based on a pre-designated color. Parkers must park in their designated zone.
What if I have a Handicap Permit?
如果你有 State issued Handicap Permit you must still purchase a Drake Permit to park in Drake owned lots. We reccomend that you purchase a permit for the lot you primarily park in, but if you need to park in another lot and there is a handicap space available in that lot you can park in that handicap space as long as you have both a State Handicap Permit and a Drake permit dispalyed. Please note that you may not park anywhere else in a lot not designated for your permit between 6 am - 4:30 pm Monday- Friday, only in available handicap spaces.

First Year residential 学生 who elect not to bring a car to campus and purchase a residential permit will be provided $40 toward use of the enterprise rental cars on campus.
Will parking cost me more under the new system?
The cost of parking is linked to which type of permit and for commuters, to the zone selected. Commuters will have the option to pay less, if they elect one of the low-demand lots. For those who select a permit within a high-demand lot, pricing will be more. The pricing of all zones is based on demand, as measured in a comprehensive parking study in 2018.
Is there enough parking on campus with the closure of several lots for construction?
是的. A comprehensive parking study conducted in 2018, reports that even after the removal of the three lots for construction, there remain almost 500 more spots than registered users. The study also revealed that there are lots that have a higher level of demand, which contributed to frustration and perceptions of limited parking. The zone system will provide a more predictable parking experience and ensure adequate parking, evenly distributed across campus.
