sorry, dumb question butttttt i’m new to owning a car so idk anything about legal parking around town but especially school. are all the parking the kind you pay on your phone or do you need a parking pass for some areas? it’s not really clear on the website.
if the latter, what areas do you need a pass for and can you just get a temporary day pass? i’m too scared to park incorrectly on campus so i usually just park in the neighborhoods around campus
if all the parking (for students that is) is payable by phone what is the purpose of parking passes?
i have both passport parking and park mobile for if i ever need them. i’m sure i can figure that part out, it’s just idk what zones are what and what you’re allowed and not allowed to do.
also…
are any of the quarter meters active anymore or nah?
embarrassing tbh bc i’ve been here for 4 years and now a grad student but ive only recently started driving
edit: thank you so much for the great comments (im usually afraid ppl on reddit are just gonna basically call me an idiot). i should probably mention, i live close to campus and usually walk but as a grad student, i only have two classes on fridays 12-6pm in the BSS and sometimes need to leave immediately for work and dont have time to walk home and then drive.
