University Daily Kansan / Tuesday, October 10, 1989 5 KU student fights for lot Parking permit crackdown for center begins Rich Cornell/Special to the Kansan By Rich Cornell Kansan staff writer The St. Lawrence Catholic Center parking lot has more empty spaces for center patrons than it did last week. Kay Hawes guards the Catholic Campus Center parking lot. The patrons and center parking-permit holders can thank Kay Hawes for the available spaces. She arrived at 6 a.m. yesterday at the lot and planned to remain for four hours, just as she did three times last week. A sign hanging from a barrier in each of the two parking lot entrances explained why Hawes was there. "No parking without a permit, no more permits available, violators will be towed," the signs read. This semester, students without permits have filled the lot by parking there before walking to class. Hawes, Fairfax, Va., first-year law student, said she was keeping the lot clear of cars without permits to allow room for those using the center. The center, 1631 Crescent Road; serves students and the community in a number of ways, she said. Students often meet at the center in the morning to socialize and study with friends, as well as to attend mass. "We want the students who use the place to be able to get in," Hawes said. Hawes said the center gave a permit to anyone who requested one and asked only for a donation. How-ever, there are no more permits available. Students did not think she had the right to keep them out of the lot when she began stopping them Wednesday, Hawes said. "The first day I did it, people were extremely nasty." she said. A woman who had lost her bus pass offered Hawes $20 to allow her to park at the center for one day, she said. She refused the offer. Neighbors and drivers with permits have thanked Hawes, she said. "Basically, we want to reduce the amount of traffic coming into the neighborhood," she said. Bob Everhart, a priest at the center, said Hawes decided to patrol the lot after she could not find a place to park. Preventing drivers without permits from parking in the lot will provide room for people to attend meetings at the center, he said. The lot now has enough empty spaces for such meetings because of Hawes' efforts, Everhart said. "I think it's definitely working," he said. We tell a $4 million a month market where the fun is.
