Heat and Hot Water Repairs TOMORROW

The time frame for this heat shutdown impacting several Augsburg buildings will be from 6:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, October 22. The reason: Steam will be shut down because of a rusted out condensate line that is located on Fairview’s property north of Riverside Ave.

Notice from MnDOT: Upcoming Repairs, Closures

submitted by sitarami@augsburg.edu

MnDOT is going to be doing to repair the bridges over Interstate 94 at 22nd Avenue and 25th Avenue in Minneapolis. MnDOT will start repairing the 25th Avenue bridge Oct. 23. It will require overnight closures at the bridge and the closure of 25th Avenue and Riverside Avenue to motorists and pedestrians.

MnDOT also is installing a temporary pedestrian bridge at 22nd Avenue. This will require closing I-94 during two weekends for about 18 hours to demolish the existing bridge and install the temporary bridge.

Scooter users, please watch where you park

submitted by garvey@augsburg.edu

Scooter users – please park away from doorways, and park where the scooter does not block sidewalk traffic.

Scooters in doorways and on sidewalks pose hazards for many individuals.

As noted on the City of Minnespolis site, http://www.minneapolismn.gov/publicworks/trans/WCMSP-212816, do not block pedestrian access or doorways.

To report issues with scooters, please contact 311.

Protestor on Thursday, Oct. 17

submitted by garvey@augsburg.edu

Many students, faculty and staff saw and heard the individual on the public sidewalk between Christensen Center and Foss. That individual has been at Augsburg before, most typically in the public park; this time choosing to use public sidewalk.

Public Safety and student affairs staff monitored the situation, some students showed up with signs of their own to support a different message.

Free speech provides opportunities for voices we agree with and voices we disagree with. Thanks to the Augsburg community for challenging the message, choosing to ignore the message, and taking care of one another.

Pedestrian Bridge Closed Until Winter

submitted by sitarami@augsburg.edu

A dump truck traveling on Interstate 94 last month struck the pedestrian bridge that goes over I-94 near Augsburg. State officials hope to reopen the pedestrian bridge by early winter. As alternatives, pedestrians can take 20th and 25th avenues south and bicyclists are urged to take the Riverside Avenue Bridge. The truck also hit the 25th Avenue and Riverside Avenue bridges and the west side sidewalk on 25th will remain closed until that bridge is repaired, which is expected to be done by late fall. State officials should be implementing some traffic control changes soon that will allow pedestrians on the west side of the bridge.

Roads on the east side of campus will also be difficult to navigate due to barricades in place to assist with move-in (Butler Pl, 23rd Ave, 22nd Ave, 7 1/2 St, and 7th St). Please plan accordingly when moving around campus and if you are able to, enter campus on the west side to avoid the barricades (8th St, 21st Ave and 6th St).

We encourage Staff and Faculty to utilize Lot L for parking, or to check with your supervisor if you are able to work from home if you are not participating in move-in festivities.

Please visit the Residence Life website for a map of the move-in route to help plan travel (link below).

Full Notice Tuesday from the Minnesota Department of Transportation:
A dumpster hauler struck the 22nd Avenue pedestrian bridge near Augsburg University on Monday. It also hit the 25th Avenue and Riverside Avenue bridges.

The sidewalk and bike lane on the southbound side are also closed. The sidewalk on the northbound side is open. The Riverside Avenue bridge will remain open.

Permit Sales FAQs 1 of 2

submitted by erchula@augsburg.edu

Permit Sales FAQs

– Are permits available by the semester?

Yes, permits can be purchased by the semester. Surface lots are split between Fall and Spring; each semester will be half the cost of a year permit. Underground lots are split between Fall, Spring and Summer and each semester costs one third of the year permit

– When can I buy Underground permits?
If you’re a student, underground permits are available on the day you are eligible to purchase surface lot permits. If you’re Staff/Faculty, underground permits are available on Friday, August 16th.

– What is a commuter permit? Is it available for Staff/Faculty?

A commuter permit is in reference to a day student who commutes to campus and does not have on campus housing. These permits are not available for Staff/Faculty

– Are carpool permits available this year?

Yes, a limited number of carpool permits are available this year to Students, Staff and Faculty. They will be available to purchase on the same day as you’re eligible to purchase other permits. Carpool permits cost the same as regular permits (Commuter Student or Staff/Faculty), but the cost is split between those participating. Only one permit is provided for a group of carpool participants.

– I’m a 4th year student and I’m a couple credits short of being listed as a senior, will I be able to buy a permit on the Senior sales date?

No. A student’s class determination (Sophomore, Junior, Senior) is set by the Registrar depending on the amount of credits you have completed, and that information determines what date you are eligible to purchase a permit. If you believe you have been designated as the wrong class, please contact the Registrar.

Permit Sales FAQs 2 of 2

submitted by erchula@augsburg.edu

Permit Sales FAQs

– Am I able to get a discounted permit due to a special circumstance?

No, we do not discount permits.

– Can I get a prorated permit for Underground if I decide to purchase one later in the year?

No, we do not prorate underground permits. The reason for this is because when you purchase an underground permit you are paying for the value of the parking space, not the amount of time spent using the space. As stated in the FAQ post 1 of 2, if you decide to buy one halfway through the year, a limited number of Spring and Summer permits for Luther and Oren underground garages may be available.

– Are there City of Minneapolis permits available for purchase?

Yes. Augsburg is allotted a limited number of city permits for residential students, however, these are not purchased through Augsburg. If a residential student would like to apply for a City permit, they must get a letter verifying on campus residency from Public Safety, then fill out and submit an application to the City of Minneapolis. If you are interested in pursuing a City street permit, please email parking@augsburg.edu; residency letters are issued on a first come, first serve basis.
