To be eligible to purchase a permit you must be enrolled for the Fall semester, have a valid Lehman student picture ID that gives you access to the campus and have no outstanding financial obligations to the College including those for the Fall 2024 semester. If you do not currently have a physical photo ID, you must send an e-mail to public.safety@lehman.cuny.edu for further instructions. The Lehman 360 Digital ID will not allow you access into any of the college’s parking lots and a physical ID is required.

The student parking rate structure remains unchanged from the previous semesters, the rates are $75 for day permits and $55 for evening only permits. The day permit grants full access to the student parking for both day and evening hours, whereas the evening only permit allows for student parking access after 5:15 pm. Please consider your planned usage when selecting the type of permit you would like to purchase since all parking fees are non-refundable. Permits are non-transferable and can only be used by the permit-holding student while on campus. Persons who leave their cars parked while off campus will be in violation of College policy, risk losing their parking privileges and are subject to enforcement actions including towing at the permit holder’s expense.

After you have purchased your permit, you must bring your receipt and dual ID card to the Office of Campus Activities Office in Shuster Hall, room 078, to activate your ID Card. If you do not have an ID card, you will need to contact the Office Public Safety at 718-960-8593 for information on how to obtain one since this is required for parking privileges.

Parking decals must be displayed in the vehicle at all times when parked in any of the college’s parking lots. Cars that do not display a permit will be ticketed. A grace period will be given until such time that we notify you that it is available for pick up.

Reserved Parking Permits

Reserved parking permits should only be purchased online once you have been notified that your request for reserved parking has been approved for the FY 2024-25 academic year.

Requests for Lehman College’s 2024-25 reserved parking permits (i.e. South lot and Paul Avenue parking lots) are currently being accepted by the Office of Campus Activities, Shuster Hall room 078. The price of a reserved parking permit is $285. At this time, Science lot will not be reopening for the Fall semester and reserved parking availability will be limited to the South and Paul Avenue lots.

To be considered for reserved parking, you must complete and submit the Reserve Parking Request Form via email at lehman.parking@lehman.cuny.edu by close of business on Wednesday, July 31, 2024. Please note that reserved parking is extremely limited so it is imperative that this form be completed demonstrating the need for “in-out” privileges in order to be considered; having a reserved parking space in the current year does not guarantee that you will receive one in the next academic year.

Officers will place tickets on all vehicles in violation of parking regulations.

As many of you are aware, an unsafe condition exists as students, faculty, and staff attempt to cross the street on Goulden Avenue to access the South Parking Lot. The condition is being created by a constant flow of double-parked cars that impede both vehicular and pedestrian movement in the area.

To alleviate this condition, the Public Safety Department will issue “double-parking Summons”. Our intention with this initiative is not to cause inconvenience to any member of the College Community but rather to provide a safer environment in that area.

Penalties

Please be advised that failure to pay parking violations summonses may result in the revocation of your campus parking privileges, deactivation of your dual card and, for students a negative service indicator will be placed on your CUNYfirst account. Anyone who repeatedly violates College parking regulations will forfeit their privilege of using the College parking facilities, and will be reported to the proper College authorities.

Should it become necessary to remove a vehicle which is found to be in violation of parking regulations, the owner will be liable for all expenses incurred.

If your vehicle is TOWED, report to the Public Safety Department for all the information needed to retrieve your vehicle. The 50th and 52nd Police Precincts (according to where the vehicle is parked) will be notified of the towing occurrence.
