ORONO — The University of Maine’s winter overnight parking ban will be in effect from Nov. 1, 2003 through May 1, 2004, according to the UMaine Parking Services Office.
Faculty, staff, commuter, perimeter and visitor parking areas are closed to overnight parking during this period every year. No vehicles may be parked in these lots between midnight and 6 a.m.
The Hilltop Lot and Nutting Lot commuter areas and the north end of the perimeter area of the Steam Plant Lot are available for faculty, staff, commuter students and visitors who have a short-term need to park their vehicles overnight. To use these lots, vehicle owners must obtain an overnight permit from the Student Service Center in the Memorial Union or at the Public Safety Building during evening hours and on weekends.
Those with questions should either consult a parking map or call the Parking Services Office at 581-4047.
Vehicle owners are urged to consult the Parking Services’s website (http://www.umaine.edu/parking/) for updates related to parking, snow removal and lot closings.
