Charlottesville Parking Center Inc.
   Security
   Your personal and your property's safety are of the utmost importance to Charlottesville Parking Center but it will also require some cooperation from you to insure that all four locations remain safe and secure for you, our customers.
  • A 24-hour closed circuit television surveillance system with a tape backup allowing us to monitor activities within the confines of our building.
  •  Charlottesville Parking Center, Inc. monitors a fire alarm system throughout the building using pull bars. 
  •  CPC and 911 monitor an emergency, handicap access telephone in both elevators. These telephones are placed in easy handicap access and are operated by a single push button  A security company will be automatically notified.
  •  Charlottesville Parking Center, Inc. provides our building lock-down service closing time, which seals the building during the off-periods for the protection of your vehicle (if left overnight or for the week-end).  You will be unable to access the building and retrive your car without calling for assistance.  (This does not include the private basement area in the Water Street Garage; -- see your instructions or call us for information).

Even with these systems in place it is still necessary that you contribute to your own safety :

  • It is important to be aware of your proximity to persons that you may not be comfortable with (at times this might suggest an alternate path to your automobile or waiting for the next elevator).
  • It is important to be aware of the location of television cameras, and fire alarms.
  • It is also important to be aware of the emergency; handicap telephones in the elevators and their usage.

In case of any disturbance please assist your fellow parker and us by IMMEDIATELY notifying the Booth Attendant of the situation that appears to be problem. It is better that we be made aware of any possible situations, even if it is a very minor incident. We would like you to allow the booth attendant (that is trained for these situations to take whatever steps necessary.  Please do not get involved, but REMOVE YOURSELF from the situation and follow the instruction of the Attendant or the Official that is taking charge.
