Special ​Parking Areas

Visitors

SAC has designated visitor stalls in lots 3 and 11 that allow you to park for 30 minutes without penalty. These 30-minute or temporary parking areas are identified by marked stalls “30 Minute” and/or posted signage.

Visitors who need to park longer than the posted time limit must purchase a temporary parking permit using the QR code posted in each lot or online. The current cost is $2.00 (subject to change) for an all-day permit, which is valid in any student or otherwise unmarked parking stall.

Disabled

Several areas on campus are designated for disabled parking. Vehicles parked in these blue-lined parking stalls are required to properly display a valid disabled placard or license plate and purchase a valid college parking permit.

Staff Lots

​Staff members must purchase a valid Staff Parking Permit.

Motorcycles, Mopeds, Bicycles​

No permit is required for motorcycles, mopeds, or bicycles if parked in designated motorcycle parking or bicycle racks. Use of a vehicle stall requires a permit.

​Parking Lot Security​​​

The college provides personnel to patrol the parking lots. However, persons parking on district property do so at their own risk. RSCCD does not assume any responsibility for loss or damage to vehicles or their contents while parked anywhere on district property.

Although our campus is relatively crime free, one type of problem is motor vehicle related theft. Please read our advisory carefully.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your local campus safety office at (714) 564-6330.
