Welcome/Opening Remarks: Dr. Flores

NEW BUSINESS

Parking Department changes:

• Parking Advisory Committee Chair position passed to Dr. Hector Flores since Dr. Wagner's promotion to COO. 
• Parking Department now works under LUPD. 
• Parking lot map to be created and maintained digitally through Google Map function so that repair status can be logged and updated in a format accessible to all committee members. 

Update on signage for parking lots: Signs have all been installed. Two need to be amended:

• F-3 should not indicate All Permit parking. It is for S&H patients only. K. Miller stated the F-3 sign was scheduled to be corrected 1.13.23. 
• F-6 indicates Visitors Only, but it is all Staff Reserved.
• Parking lot signage tour on 1/18 for final issue check. This punch-out tour should catch any other signage problems and they can be corrected at one time.

Update on parking lot repairs and maintenance:

• Awaiting quote on C-3 curbs and striping. S. Douget asked if parking spaces immediately in front of Dauphin can be converted to a fire lane. There is not one near Provost Umphrey Stadium or Dauphin Complex.
• Potholes in C-1 temporarily filled with aquaphalt until more extensive repairs can be planned.
• Need to evaluate accessible spots and markings. Planning & Construction will fully evaluate all lots for compliance so a plan can be formulated. D. Brodnax pointed out that G-2 is a particular problem.
