*PARKING UPDATE

FOR OLLI MEMBERS*

Dear OLLI Members,


We’re excited to share that Stony Brook University is enhancing parking options for OLLI members. As part of these improvements, OLLI members are now permitted to park for FREE in Lot 40* (formerly P Lot, off Stony Brook Rd).


The University is also actively exploring additional solutions to make parking more convenient and accessible across campus. Here are some potential improvements being considered:



  • Online purchasing options to reduce wait times and eliminate date restrictions.
  • Flexible parking to better suit various needs.
  • Extended access to parking beyond the last day of each OLLI semester, possibly extending through the start of the following semester.


In addition, the Admin parking garage will soon transition to a gateless entry/exit system using a license plate reader. Members with paid parking can enter as usual, while hourly visitors can pay at a kiosk.

To simplify parking for OLLI members, the University is proposing a combined parking option with a single fee of $70 per semester, allowing access to both the Admin Garage and designated OLLI metered lots (for hang tag holders). This fee is designed to be an affordable option that bridges the current costs of Admin Garage parking and the metered lot hang tag.

Thank you for your attention and input on this important initiative! We’re excited to see these efforts improve your OLLI experience at Stony Brook University.


Warm Regards,


Liz Wilson, Interim Program Director
