The college will be reconfiguring its north parking lots in March to accommodate construction of the Facility Services building project.
This will affect both staff and student parking in those areas because the new building's location is directly in front of J-Building and extends into faculty/staff lot.
Affected parking spaces in the J-Building faculty/staff lot (North Lot 1) will be relocated along the easternmost rows of the J-Building student parking lot (North Lot 2) and designated as faculty/staff parking Monday through Friday between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Signage will be placed in these areas to indicate the change.
These spaces will be open to students and the public after 6 p.m. and on the weekends.
In addition to North Lot 2, student parking is also available in the gravel area north of North Lot 1, in East Lots 1-4, in South Lot 1, and in the center and south sections south of the Faculty/Staff section in South Lot 2.
The college will be constructing a new parking lot on the south side of campus this summer that will create an estimated 340 parking spaces. The lot is scheduled to open for the fall 2010 semester.
"We appreciate everyone's patience during the construction, particularly that of the students who will have many of their spaces relocated," Dr. Proulx said. "Though construction is inconvenient, the end results will be worth it."
