All requests for reserved parking will be made in writing to the office of the president or their designee at least a week in advance. Aside from traffic revisions necessary for construction and maintenance work, the ((security/safety office))security and safety department will not reserve parking spaces without prior approval from the president's office or their designee.

The requesting party will forward a copy of the approved request to the ((security/safety manager))director of security and safety for implementation. After receiving an approved request, the ((security/safety manager))director of security and safety will contact the requesting party to confirm the details and ((to)) assign the reserved spaces. All attempts will be made to accommodate the needs of the participants and the event, but the final decision on the allocation of spaces rests with the ((security/safety manager))director of security and safety.
Reserved spaces will be established only for arrival of participants to the event((; no "in and out" areas will be maintained)).
On the day of the event, the ((security/safety office))security and safety department will set up barricades or otherwise designate the reserved spaces.

If the requesting party wants to have a security ((officer staff))personnel supervise the parking spaces, they must make prior arrangements for staffing. Security ((officers))personnel will be assigned to such duty only if available, and their time will be charged to the requesting ((party))party's budget.
