:lol: well I will pass that on. You ever appealed a ticket?It depends. Are you talking about for athletic events or every day on campus? As for the latter, the best parking is as far away from the Nazis at PTS as you can possibly get. I ride the bus to work every day but I do have to drive occasionally late at night or on some weekends. If there were any way I could never drive to campus ever, I would use it. It borders on felonious how any and all places to park for free have vanished in the past few years, meter prices have increased 50%, AND they're now installing 24 hour parking meters. For someone like me who occasionally comes into the lab to work late, this makes it harder to do my job.

Sorry I wasn't more specific. My question is where to park on Saturday Feb. 26 at or about 2 p.m. to see the BBall game.

The Dark Horse and then walk less then 10 minutes... Oh, wait, shhhh, don't tell anyone that.
during stout month at soutern sun/mountain sun? that is crazy talk.
Once or twice. I think I'm out of those though. The thing that really bugs me is that as a researcher who needs to work late or on weekends sometimes (above and beyond 40 hours), I have to pay to do my job.
park at the sosun, take the skip for 2.25, skip all the traffic, go wasted, full, and happy.
1. You have unlimited appeals. some people appeal much more than 2 in their lifetime.
2. Take a bike/bus.
3. get a permit?
4. Stop being a communist and hating capitalism. Supply and Demand are inescapable.
The irony of number 4 engulfs me.....

I understand PTS being draconian to students and other random people but I work for CU. Shouldn't the university help me help them? What other employer would make you pay to park at your own place of work, especially at times when space is not at a premium? I just don't understand why they are so eager to penalize hard working employees.
At least in my experience it seems like its standard practice for universities to charge their employees for parking on campus...I worked for a well-known private university for 2 years and had to pay about $450 a year to park on campus, and at my public grad school that I'm attending, Im pretty sure the employees have to pay too, but I think the rates are much cheaper...$150-200 a year...
I swear all the money PTS makes writing people tickets goes towards buying new priuses and paying employees to drive around and write people tickets.
