Pirates, do you have unpaid parking citations?
The Student Government Association (SGA), Williams-Ross Purple Pantry (CLCE), and Parking and Transportation would like to share information about a new initiative - Food For Fines to support the Williams-Ross Purple Pantry, while providing a cheaper opportunity to pay parking citations. ***Please note that donations can only be accepted during the donation period of November 11 - 22, 2024.
How it Works
• You can pay for your parking citation in full by bringing non-perishable food or hygiene items to one of our donation locations on campus.
• Each food item is worth $5 towards your citation and the citation must be paid in full; partial payments will not be accepted.
o For Example, a citation worth $35 may be paid using 7 items.
• What not to donate
o Expired Food
o Damaged, dented, rusty, leaky, unlabeled or opened packages/cans
o Glass Jars
• Not all tickets qualify for this program
o Tampering with University Equipment
o Shared Permit or Tow Violation
o Parking in Reserved Space, Grass, or Sidewalk
