Excessive Violations and Immobilization/Towing of Vehicles

Students who accumulate five (5) or more parking citations a semester will be subject to disciplinary action. A wheel-lock device (boot) may be applied to the student's vehicle at any time during that semester after five parking citations have been issued. In order to have the boot removed, you must pay $25.00 boot removal fee and all tickets have to be paid at the Cashier's Office; bring the cashier's receipt to the University Police Department. After a boot has been applied and removed in that semester, you are not allowed another parking citation. If you are ticketed again in that semester, you will appear before the University of Montevallo Justice Council and/or your parking privileges will be revoked. Any ticket issued thereafter will result in your vehicle being towed at the owner's/driver's expense.

Vehicles parked on campus without a parking permit, which cannot be identified and has been ticketed multiple times, will be subject to towing and impoundment, or a wheel lock may be applied for identification purposes. Before the wheel lock is removed, the responsible person must pay the unpaid citations and purchase a parking permit.

When a wheel locking device is applied to a vehicle and remains on the vehicle for more than 24 hours, the vehicle can be towed and impoundment at the owner's/driver's expense.

The University is not liable for any damage to vehicles occurring during towing, impoundment, or when immobilized through the use of a wheel lock.
