FW: Fines to be raised for parking violations

FYI......................... From: Riese, Gail A [mailto:gariese@purdue.edu] Sent: Thursday, July 21, 2011 8:29 AM Subject: Fines to be raised for parking violations Communications Announcement Purdue University - Physical Facilities TO: Building Deputies [Please distribute.] FR: University Parking DA: Thursday, July 21, 2011 RE: Fines to be raised for parking violations Effective August 1, motorists should expect to pay a bit more in fines for parking improperly on the West Lafayette campus. In conjunction with its ongoing investigation of approaches to better align campus parking revenues with costs, the Parking and Traffic Committee recommended an increase in fines for parking violations. This approved adjustment to charges for parking violations will increase fines from $20 to $35. The last time the fee increased was in 2002. This increase is in line with fines assessed by other Big Ten universities. In addition, fees for late fine payments will increase from $3 to $10. Late fees have not been increased since they were first assessed in the 1960s. For questions or concerns, contact Holly Alexander, Parking Facilities Manager, at 49-49315 or haalexander(a)purdue.edu<mailto:haalexander@purdue.edu>.

Please take a moment to review the following safety guidelines for extremely warm weather conditions. http://www.purdue.edu/physicalfacilities/pdf/osha_heatcard.pdf Your continued assistance in minimizing cooling demand while maintaining a safe environment in your facility is appreciated. In addition to the curtailment steps that have already been implemented by the Utilities Department, you can help to reduce cooling demand by: * Shutting off lights in unoccupied areas * Turning off unnecessary/unused equipment and appliances (computers, coffee pots, etc...) * Lowering window shades on the sunny side of the building Portable fans may be used for the comfort of building occupants where needed. Thank you in advance for your attention to the safety guidelines for warm weather conditions and for your assistance in minimizing cooling demand.

FW: Cooling curtailment in effect this week

18 Jul '11

FYI............. From: Riese, Gail A [mailto:gariese@purdue.edu] Sent: Monday, July 18, 2011 10:39 AM Subject: Cooling curtailment in effect this week Importance: High Communications Announcement Purdue University - Physical Facilities TO: Building Deputies [Please distribute.] FR: Erick Van Meter, Director of Utilities DA: Monday, July 18, 2011 RE: Cooling curtailment in effect this week Heat alerts and advisories for temperatures in mid 90s and heat indexes above 110 are predicted for this week. Based upon chilled water load demand experienced thus far this summer cooling season, the predicted heat and humidity levels will make control of tight climate control spaces for temperature and humidity across campus very challenging. Cooling demand control conservation measures will be necessary. Beginning late this morning chilled water load curtailment steps will start to be implemented. Staff will be monitoring cooling load demand closely and only implement steps as necessary to balance cooling demand to our limited cooling capacity. We anticipate cooling conservation measures to be in place all week if the weather holds as predicted. In order to reduce the demand placed on the chillers, please take additional steps such as: shutting off lights in unoccupied areas, turning off unnecessary/unused equipment and appliances (computers, coffee pots, etc.), lowering window shades on the sunny side of the building, etc. (Use of portable fans is appropriate to augment comfort where needed.) We appreciate your cooperation and patience.
