Close-In, Self-Park System With New Section of Covered Parking
Our parking lot features new canopies at the entrance and exit, as well as a section of covered parking. The automated parking system dispenses a ticket upon entry with the push of the silver button. The ticket will contain the vehicle’s license plate number, date and time of entry, and a barcode. Upon returning from your trip, simply insert the ticket into the exit lane machine and pay the amount owed with debit, credit, or cash (right lane only). The license plate recognition (LPR) system may automatically populate the amount owed, or raise the gate for no-charge tickets. In that case, the ticket is not needed, but you will always want to have the ticket handy as your back-up. Listen for the voice prompts and follow the instructions.
