LD 198 Maine Senate · 132nd Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act To Prohibit The University Of Maine System Campus Police From Issuing A Citation Or Summons Related To A Parking Violation To A Visitor Of The University Of Maine System

LD 198 prohibits University of Maine System campus police from issuing parking citations or summonses to visitors (defined as non-students and non-employees) for parking violations on university-owned or controlled property. The bill amends existing law to clarify that campus police may only issue such citations to students or employees of the University of Maine System. This change specifically applies to parking enforcement and does not affect other types of violations or citations. As a result, visitors will no longer face on-campus parking citations from campus police for parking infractions.
