Accessing

Parking

Students or other college personnel who have a valid Department of Motor Vehicles Disabled Person placard or plates and intend to park on campus must purchase a regular semester length or daily parking permit. If parking is purchased online, the parking permit will be mailed when the fees are paid.

Students or other college personnel displaying a valid parking permit and a current placard or plate may park in the Access Parking areas designated by the white and blue international symbol of access.

Please note that all campus Disability Access Parking requires an accessibility placard issued by the California Department of Motor Vehicles.

The Sonoma County Transit site defines eligibility and also lists other Paratransit providers in other communities.

Santa Rosa campus.

Pedestrian Access Link (PAL)

Four routes that are most common to the Disability Resources students on the Santa Rosa campus have been written for the traveler to print out or download for personal assistance. These routes were written from the perspective of a blind traveler using a cane for guidance.
