Parking Passes - Everybody Settled In?

**HDCY** · 08-18-2012, 09:21 AM

Sounds like the parking pass carousel is settling down a bit now. Everyone settled or still looking for other options?

My tailgate crew and I(6 families) are all Cardinal members and have been for between 8-10 years depending on the family. Unfortunately, everyone got C5 this year except for me

and I got bumped to C4. Anyone interested in helping out by swapping a C4 for a C5?

I got c5 also, but did not request it. I asked for b5 where all of our friends are tailgaiting. Wish you had an A/B lot to trade for.

I guess this is good that people are getting moved back. I am cardinal+ (done the 110% for 3 years now).

It is a good thing that we have more and bigger donations. Certainly not mad about it, was just hoping there was someone that didn't care that much about where they parked and would be willing to trade. Sounds like we're in the same position.

I wish., a couple of our friends still could use some help. I downgrade from s7 to d1 to hang with all of our friends. This year I find out they got moved to G7! I am trying to find another D1 or pass close to D1. We will trade or pay!! Please help if you can!

Yes, according to JP all parking is sold out. Half of our group got kicked from C3 to G7 this year. I understand why it happened, but still it is frustrating when you have other ISU money priorities (student tuition, extra season tickets for said students and siblings, etc...) The following are excerpts from a JP response to some of our groups concerns. I understand his position and it was really nice of him to respond. Basically, all parking is now spoken for.

...
"The good news is we have experienced tremendous growth in both our season ticket base and Cyclone Club annual fund over the last few years. In fact, we are within a few hundred season tickets of breaking our season ticket record again this year and also have seen our third straight year of increased donors and donations. On the surface this all would seem to be wonderful news. However, as you are experiencing first hand, this kind of growth and demand, comes with certain challenges. Because we have a finite number of parking spaces we are simply not able to accommodate everyone with the exact location they request and have had to even tell some donors that had parking in the past that we simply do not have enough season parking spaces available this year to accommodate them at all in the season lots (i.e., the people like yourself that are being displaced to G-7 are actually displacing those currently in G-7 out of season parking spaces)."
...
"Although it does not help you with the proximity to your friends, I can share with you that the donors that have been moved to G7 over the past several years have given us very positive feedback. In 2007 we added lot G-7 to our parking inventory. The lot has approximately 1,000 spaces. The first few years the lot was half-full with Century Level Donors. However, in 2012, this lot is completely sold-out and is comprised of both Century and State members (over 300 States members have been moved to G7 during the past two years)."
