Parking & Transporation
The Parking & Transportation Office ensures the success of events by providing parking arrangements. You must fill out a Special Event Parking Request a minimum of one week prior to the event you are planning.
This request must be submitted for any type of campus event such as:
- Meetings
- Conferences
- Seminars
- Lunches
- Dinners
- Receptions
- And more
Priority is given to the event that finalizes arrangements with Parking & Transportation Services first when multiple events are scheduled on the same date. Learn more about parking rates.
Physical Plant
Physical Plant helps with many of your event needs. In most cases, you will need to fill out an Aim Customer Request or submit a dig permit which can be found with other Physical Plant Forms (labeled Dig and Excavating Permit).
Some areas Physical Plant can assist with include:
- Dig Requests: A request must be submitted whenever anything is put into the ground.
- Irrigation System: A request must be submitted so this is cut off for an outside event.
- Housekeeping: Submit a request to let Housekeeping know about any event taking place during the evening or weekend hours to help ensure the department can prepare accordingly.
It is beneficial to let Physical Plant know about your event, especially if it is held outside. This ensures there are no conflicts, such as the grass being mowed at the same time as your event.
Security/Opening Buildings Exteriors
Door programing is determined by what is scheduled in the Campus Reservations.
If you have questions concerning door access, Contact Electronic Access Control Administrator, at 910.962.3564.
Academic event spaces are opened by University Police. The Special Event Security Policy provides additional details about event security.
