While parking in Skyline College campus parking lots, students must obey all campus, local and state regulations. Backing into parking spaces is prohibited, and violators will be cited. At the beginning of each term, a grace period of two weeks (one week for summer session) will be in effect in student parking lots only. The grace period does not apply to staff lots and other restricted areas. Parking spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Therefore, a parking permit is not a guarantee of a parking space. Skyline College and the San Mateo County Community College District do not accept liability for vandalism, theft or accidents. Use of campus parking facilities is at the user's risk. Parking spaces with curbs painted blue and marked with disabled person logos are reserved for those persons with a California Disabled Person placard or license plate. If all of the disabled persons parking spaces in a staff lot are occupied a vehicle with a Disabled Person placard may park in any available space in a staff lot.

No student, staff, daily, patron or visitor parking permit is required when displaying either a valid CA Disabled Person placard or license plates. Transportation from student lots to campus may be arranged through the Educational Access Center (EAC). SamTrans provides bus service along several routes to the Skyline College campus.

The right to appeal a parking citation is outlined in California Vehicle Code section 40215. The appeal process is designed to lawfully address citations issued in error, or when the dismissal of a citation is in the interest of justice. A formal citation appeal must be submitted in all cases. California Vehicle Code section 40500(d) prohibits any entity from altering, modifying, destroying, or nullifying a citation before it is processed by the Office of Parking Violations. The San Mateo County Community College District Department of Public Safety cannot rescind or void citations (even if issued in error) outside of the appeal process.

The aesthetics and ambiance decrease considerably. The objects are also hazardous and deter prospective home buyers. The reserving of their shoveled out space makes people think they have Squatters Rights. They feel entitled to take whatever action they consider appropriate to keep their space. It is not unheard of for a person to stick the tires of someone who parks in “their space”, or key their cars. Saving a shoveled parking space often contributes to other selfish and inconsiderate behavior. Some people will shovel themselves out and never consider where they throw the snow. They throw the snow in the street. The plow trucks repeatedly take that snow and throw it back in shoveled spaces. Also, people who shovel will tend to pile up the snow in giant mounds, between parking spaces. This causes the snow mound to take up two spaces. After all has been said and done, this issue of saving a shoveled out space may never be solved without blood shed or a federal court order. So deeply ingrained in the spirit and personality of every person who has ever shoveled out his or her vehicle, it cannot be resolved in a rational manner. Whoever is able to solve the practice of “The Parking Chair” should have his own parking space shoveled and kept reserved for life!
