Alternative Side Parking In Effect

For those who live OFF-CAMPUS, please be aware that The City of Binghamton’s winter parking rules begin Sunday, December 1, and will be in effect until March 15, 2020. 

Here are the alternate side parking rules according to the City of Binghamton:

• On even calendar days, park on the even side of the street until 5 p.m.
• On odd calendar days, park on the odd side of the street until 5 p.m.
• The change in parking occurs each day at 5 p.m.
• For example, since Dec. 1 is an odd day, vehicles must be moved to the even side of the street at 5 p.m. Residents should think, “Park for tomorrow.”
• Rules are in effect 24 hours per day.
• Alternate side parking rules apply to all City streets, including those with parking on only one side

Off-Campus Safety Tips

As the semester ends, students are heading back home and leaving their off-campus apartments and homes empty. To keep your home safe while you're out of town, do the following:

• Set automatic timers for indoor and outdoor lights, televisions and radios.
• Set poles in the tracks of your sliding glass doors.
• Leave keys with a neighbor. Do not hide extra keys outside. Burglars will look there first.
• Ask neighbors to check your home regularly and have a number where you can be reached in an emergency.
• Leave drapes and shades open to make the house appear occupied.
• Ask a neighbor to use your garbage cans. Empty garbage cans are clues that you're away.
• Leave a parked car in your driveway.
• Call the Binghamton Police Department at 607-772-7076 to make a vacant-house report. The police will check your house while you are away.
