Transportation – Fleet Vehicles On/Off-Campus Parking

Fleet Vehicles On-Campus Parking

College vehicles may be parked in designated parking areas on campus without purchasing a parking permit.  There are areas on campus where College vehicles are not authorized to park.  Parking in these areas may result in a parking citation.  These areas include:

  • Areas with official signs prohibiting parking
  • Within 15 feet of a fire hydrant
  • In fire lanes
  • Wheelchair and disability stalls and lots
  • Lots and stalls specifically designated for other departments (e.g. “Palomar College Police Department Vehicles only”)
  • “Restricted” stalls
  • “Service Vehicle Only” stalls
  • Load zones (over the posted time period)
  • In front of any gate, ramp, or other area where parking would block access.  In these situations, the vehicle may be towed.
  • Areas not designated for parking

If you are unsure of where to park a College vehicle, please contact Campus Police at extension 2289 or 760/891-7273.

  • College vehicles are not exempt from parking fees in privately owned parking lots.
  • Drivers are personally responsible for parking violations and towing and/or storage resulting from parking violations.
  • When parking a fleet vehicle off-campus, the department is responsible for all parking fees.
