Basketball players reclaim overflow parking lot
Basketball players have regained control of the courts in the parking lot next to the University Museum of Natural and Cultural History, but many students and faculty members will lose their overflow parking as a result.
Department of Public Safety Lt. Herb Horner said the east basketball courts that face Bean Complex had been turned into extra parking spaces over the last couple of years.
However, he said University Conferences Services must reclaim the courts for the various basketball camps held over the summer.
Beginning today, permit holders will not be allowed to park in the basketball court area. Horner said any cars found parked there will be towed.
Horner said he does not know if the courts will revert to additional parking spaces in the future, adding that it depends on the need for spaces.
