How to “Safe-List” a Vehicle

Safe-listing is when you contact our parking patrol company, Patrol One, and receive a confirmation number from them in order to park a vehicle overnight in a guest parking space.  Safe-listing is required for vehicles in guest parking between the hours of 11:00 pm until 6:00 am.

• Resident’s name, address, space number and telephone number.

• Number of days for vehicle to be safe-listed.

• Write down the confirmation number on a piece of paper and place it on the dashboard of the vehicle.

b) Online on Patrol One’s website:

Go to www.patrol-one.com

• Click on “Enter Safe-listing Console” on the right side of the screen.

• In the first column, “Safe-list Classic”, enter the license plate number of the vehicle that you are safe-listing at the bottom of the column. Then click “Get Started”.

• Follow the rest of the instructions and provide the information requested.

• After you print out the confirmation number, place it on the dashboard of the vehicle.
