Semester parking permits are valid at all of our colleges and centers, so you only need to buy one per semester.
How to Buy a Semester Parking Permit
We recommend you buy your parking pass early to avoid delays during the first week of school.

- Online in eServices. If you purchase in advance, then your permit will be mailed at least two weeks before the semester starts.
- Submit a payment coupon to your college's Business Services Office. If you purchase in advance, then your permit will be mailed at least two weeks before the semester starts.
- Get your permit in person by visiting your college's Business Services Office as early as 30 days before the first week of school.

Semester parking permits can be displayed inside transparent plastic hangers that hang from the rearview mirror. If the upper portion of the front windshield is tinted, the hanging permit must extend below the tinted area.

Lost, Stolen, and Counterfeit Parking Permits
If your parking permit is lost or stolen, then immediately report it to the Los Rios Police Department. We will record the permit number that was lost or stolen in case someone else tries to use it.
If a parking permit that has been reported as lost or stolen is found displayed on a vehicle, then a parking citation may be issued and other corrective action may be taken.
Lost or Stolen Parking Permits
Lost or stolen parking permits will not be replaced for free. A new parking permit must be purchased at the normal price.
Damaged Parking Permits
If your parking permit is damaged, then you must show proof of repairs or bring in the old permit (permit number must be intact) to get a new permit. There is a $2 replacement fee.
If You Sell Your Vehicle
If you sell your vehicle, then you must show proof of sale or bring in the old permit (permit number must be intact) to get a new permit. There is a $2 replacement fee.
Disclaimer
The issuance of a parking permit does not guarantee parking availability. The responsibility of finding legal parking spaces rests with the motor vehicle operator. Lack of parking spaces is not considered a valid reason for violation of district parking regulations or California Vehicle Code provisions. It is your responsibility to read the posted signs and park accordingly.
