| Member Parking
|
Please remember the following tips for successful parking in the attached Fillmore Place garage:
Keep your parking ticket safe from creases, wrinkles, oils, or damage as all of these potentially demagnetize the validation and it will not read properly.
Each stamp is valid for up to three hours validation, per visit. Present your ticket for validation upon entry to the club so you do not forget to get your stamp before you leave.
If you experience trouble with the validator at the garage exit, please look carefully at the machine; there is a phone key pad and signage directing you through an auto-dialer system, through which the parking garage management may assist you.
As directed on the sign, please dial *1#, and if you do not receive an answer, move on to *2#. If you do not receive an answer, dial *3#. By following the sequential order, you will eventually reach the assigned parking garage manager on duty, who will ask you a series of questions in attempt to assist you and may activate the gate release remotely, if needed.
