 The parking bylaws that guide Parking Services are found in Section 90.2 of The University of Regina Act. A listing of these bylaws are found in The Saskatchewan Gazette

The University of Regina makes the following reasonable presumptions:

  1. The person(s) obtaining a valid U of R parking permit is responsible for all infractions issued to each vehicle registered to that permit or any vehicle displaying that permit.
  2. If anyone with the same address as the registered owner(s) is determined to be associated with the University, then that person is presumed to be the operator of the vehicle receiving a parking infraction and is responsible for said infraction and/or;
  3. The registered owner of a vehicle will be responsible for all infractions issued to that vehicle if no other person at that address is determined to be associated with the University.

Failure to comply with these bylaws and the rules and regulations of the University of Regina can result in receiving a parking citation.
