Parking Services

Parking Services at SFCC

All campus parking is paid parking, either by meters or paid virtual permits. The Community Colleges of Spokane no longer require a plastic hang tag permit. A virtual permit is obtained by registering your vehicle license plate in the CCS parking management system and paying an appropriate fee. Individuals may purchase a day, month, quarter, or annual (available for purchase only July 1 through December 31) virtual permit. Day parking is also available by parking at and paying a parking meter.

There are a limited number of short-term visitor parking spaces. A visitor is any person, excluding students, employees, vendors and invited guests who lawfully visit the campus for purposes, which are in keeping with the colleges' role as institutions of higher learning in the state of Washington.

Parking regulations are enforced Monday-Friday, from 6:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

State-issued Disability Placards and Disabled Parking License Plates

Individuals issued a state disabled placard or state issued disabled parking license plates must also have a Community Colleges of Spokane (CCS) virtual parking permit to park on a CCS Campus (WAC 132Q-20-040). CCS offers enhanced convenience parking options for people issued a state disabled placard/disabled parking license plates. With a Community Colleges of Spokane (CCS) virtual parking permit (or paid parking meter if parked at a parking meter) and a disabled placard/disabled parking license plate, along with the numerous designated disabled parking spaces throughout our campuses, you can park in any designated student, faculty or visitor parking most convenient to you.
