These spaces are marked in the lots. Carpool users will need to obtain a pass from Sustainability office to park in the carpool spaces. A listing of low emission and high efficiency (LEHE) vehicles is maintained by the US Green Car Council. To apply for the (LEHE) vehicle sticker, documentation (i.e., vehicle manual) must be provided to the Public Safety office. Public Safety will issue stickers for approved vehicles that must be placed on the right rear bumper. Cars parking in the carpool spaces that do not have appropriate passes and cars parking in the low emission/high efficiency vehicle spaces that do not meet the standards will be ticketed. • Parking is limited to designated parking areas only; as it is impossible to mark all areas of the college where parking is prohibited. Lack of space is not considered a valid excuse for violation of these regulations. • Vehicles may park only in the areas to which they are assigned and must display the appropriate hang-tag permit, stickers, or dashboard temporary pass indicating authorization.

Blue lines designate disabled spaces, green lines designate low emitting and fuel efficient vehicles and carpool parking, and yellow lines designate staff spaces. • Vehicle operators must notify the Public Safety office if they need to leave their vehicle or bicycle in the college's parking lot overnight.

All parking areas have red marked areas that are for motorcycle parking. Any vehicle or bicycle parked on campus 30 days or more or after hours in designated areas and lots, risks being towed at the owner or operator's expense. Vehicles parked in college parking lots after 1:00 a.m. without prior authorization from public safety, parked in fire zones, no-parking areas, or improperly parked in handicapped or reserved spaces, will be subject to towing at the owner's expense. Prior to having the vehicle towed, the college's public safety office will notify the duty officer of the Howard County police department by telephone. Within 10 says of the vehicle being towed, the college's public safety office will attempt to determine the owner and send a certified letter to the owner indicating when and where the vehicle was towed.
