CampusParc is scheduled to begin its annual power washing of the parking decks, stairwells, and common areas of campus garages on Monday, March 31. This deep cleaning includes pretreating all oil spots with a degreasing agent, followed by a high-pressure rinse at 4,000 psi. All water is recovered and disposed of in accordance with Ohio EPA guidelines. This work, part of CampusParc's ongoing maintenance program, will continue through September. Signs will be placed at each garage entrance as a reminder that power washing is occurring.
In most cases, the garage will remain open, and select floors will close for cleaning. Cleaning will begin in the evening, and the next floor will close as each one is completed. This process will continue until the cleaning of all the floors is complete. Lane Avenue, 12th Avenue and SAFEAUTO garages will fully close. Please see the chart below for details.
After the closures begin, vehicles remaining on the closed-off floors are subject to relocation at the owner's expense. CampusParc will attempt to contact the vehicle's owner before relocation.
A tentative schedule for each garage, as well as the type of impact, is as follows:
