Impoundments

A vehicle is subject to be impounded (towed or immobilized with a wheel lock) at any time if it is found parked:

  • With three or more unpaid citations
  • Illegally in an area marked for persons with disabilities
  • Illegally in an area marked for Marianist parking
  • Illegally in a loading zone
  • Illegally in a reserved/designated space
  • On a roadway without authorization
  • So that it impedes the flow of traffic
  • In a tow-away zone
  • Without displaying a valid license plate or with a falsified registration
  • With a stolen, forged, altered, revoked, or misused permit
  • Without meeting minimum State of Ohio operating standards and is deemed hazardous
  • Parked on grass or dirt areas
  • Parked in a delivery zone for more than an hour
  • Parked in a delivery zone with three or more unpaid citations

As a general rule towing is an extreme measure taken during periods of heavy demand to ensure available parking spaces for valid permit holders. During such times a vehicle may be towed if it is found parked:

  •  Without a permit
  • In a space not designated for parking
  • In the wrong lot during restricted times
  • In a delivery zone overtime
