Electronic gates limit access to the student parking lot and the Victoria Road side of campus during school hours. Students will be required to scan an electronic badge to gain entry into the student lot.

**Students who take courses at AB-Tech are issued parking passes free of charge and are encouraged to park on that campus. Passes for dual-enrolled students may be obtained from the AB-Tech Police Department in the AB-Tech Mission/Conference Center building.

Eligibility Requirements
Parking permits will ONLY be made available to students who have:

• No outstanding student financial obligations to their school
• Valid "limited" or "provisional" driver's license at time of registration. Students with a "limited learner permit" are not eligible. Spaces will not be held for students who do not qualify at the time of registration.
• Current vehicle registration
• Proof of vehicle insurance

Parking permits will not be issued to students that do not present all required posted documentation or meet eligibility requirements upon permit pick-up.

Asheville High School Parking Regulations
Parking a vehicle on school property is a privilege, not a right. Students who operate a vehicle on campus should fully understand their duties and responsibilities and are subject to any or all of the following consequences:

• Ticketing
• Disciplinary action
• Revocation of parking privilege
• Towing and storage of the vehicle, at the owner's expense

The parking regulations listed below are in effect each school day from 7 AM until 4 PM.

1. Current year parking permits must be purchased prior to parking a vehicle on campus.
2. Parking permits must be displayed on the left rear back window of each registered vehicle. Vehicles that do not have parking permits displayed are subject to ticketing or wheel boot immobilization. The fee for removing the wheel boot is $50, and must be paid before the wheel boot is removed.
3. Parking permits are issued for specific vehicles and are not transferrable. If the vehicle is sold, the permit should be destroyed.

9. Loitering in the parking lot is prohibited. Students are to leave their vehicles immediately upon parking, and are not permitted to return to their vehicles except for departure or must have written permission from an administrator or the SRO to be in student lots during school hours. Teachers cannot give a student permission to leave the AHS campus.
10. A radio, tape player, or other mechanical sound making device or instrument from within the motor vehicle cannot be louder than necessary for the convenient hearing by persons inside the vehicle in areas adjoining the school.
11. Safe operation of motor vehicles on campus is required. No student is allowed to ride in the back of a pick-up or flat-bed truck. Unsafe acts (i.e. riding on car hoods, bumpers, radiators, fenders, spinning wheels, burning rubber, running board, etc.) will result in suspension of parking privileges.
12. Students who drive and park vehicles on school grounds are subject to all traffic laws and school rules. Vehicles must not travel in excess of 10 miles per hour.
13. Students with 10 unexcused absences, 10 truancies, or discipline issues may have their parking privileges suspended or revoked until such issues are resolved.

15. Handicapped parking is available as needed on an assigned basis only.
16. If a student's driver's license is revoked FOR ANY REASON, students must notify the school office immediately. That student's driving privileges for the AHS campus and the parking space will be revoked and the parking space resold.
17. Per ACS School Board Policies 4320 and 7250, possession and/or use of tobacco products is prohibited on campus, including in student vehicles.
18. Student vehicles are subject to search and seizure per ACS School Board Policy 4342.
19. Accidents on the school campus that involve a motor vehicle must be reported to the office immediately. Failure to report accidents can result in the student losing their parking privileges for the duration of the school year and/or duration of their enrollment at the school.
20. ACS is not responsible for theft from vehicles and does not assume liability for any property damage to any private vehicle parked on the property. The owner/operator(s) of all private vehicles accept responsibility for their own property and agree that they are parking at their own risk.

Violation of any of the above mentioned regulations may result in permanent loss of parking privileges for both students and disciplinary or legal action.

Disciplinary Actions for Parking Violations
Failure to follow the rules will result in the following consequences:

Parking fines not paid within THREE school days will result in the doubling of the fine and loss of parking privilege until the fine is paid in full.

Parking permit fees will not be prorated or refunded if student parking privileges are revoked or if a student relocates during the school year. Students who have had their parking privileges revoked WILL NOT be able to have this privilege reinstated until the following school year and upon administration approval.

If the vehicle is operated and/or parked in the parking lot after parking privileges for that student have been suspended by the principal or his designee, the car may be towed away at owner’s expense.
