Parking violations are at an all-time high at LU, thanks in part to a new enforcement policy and the daily scramble over parking spots close to classrooms.

Since September, Lindenwood security has issued 205 parking violations across campus, compared with 224 tickets written during fall 2009. In spring 2010, when the new enforcement measures began, 490 were given out.

The university began amping up its parking enforcement last spring to cut down on violators, said Kurt Smith, who became director of public safety and security this year.

“[Dean of Students] Terry Russell and I talked when I came onboard, and one of the issues was a lack of [parking] enforcement,” Smith said.
