Important notice regarding college vehicle rental
We are experiencing a high demand for use of College vehicles. Reservations are first come, first served. Please make sure you get your approved vehicle reservation request to Property Control via the electronic request form located on the Finance Department portal page no later than three (3) business days before the reservation. This will help to ensure we can provide you with a vehicle.
Because of the high demand, we are currently having to rent additional vehicles from outside agencies. If you are no longer in need of your vehicle, you MUST contact Sarah Goodman and/or Rachel Patarozzi via email to cancel this reservation as soon as possible. If you do not cancel your reservation with us and an outside rental occurs because of said reservation, you will be responsible for the rental charges incurred by the outside agency. Additionally, we often have another group taking a van out shortly after its return to the College. If you are not able to return the vehicle to campus at or before your scheduled return time, you must contact us so that we can make other arrangements for other reservations scheduled for that vehicle if necessary. If we are not contacted and a future reservation is not able to be fulfilled, you may be responsible for transportation charges incurred by the other party. If you are uncertain about your return time, please make sure you allow for some extra time within your reservation request.
You may pick up the keys and clipboard for an upcoming reservation the day before you leave (or earlier upon request), or Friday for weekend or early Monday morning reservations. However, you are not allowed to physically take the assigned vehicle until the exact time of your approved reservation. That vehicle may be reserved for another party. If this occurs and the vehicle is not available for that person, you will be responsible for whatever transportation charges are incurred for that party.
Lastly, you MUST fill the vehicle with gas prior to returning to campus regardless of how far you went. If it is returned without gas and gas receipt, you will be asked to take the vehicle back out to fill up. If you have any questions regarding these guidelines, please feel free to contact rachel.patarozzi@llcc.edu or sarah.goodman@llcc.edu.

An important message from Student Accounts
Student Accounts in the Finance Department would like to remind our fellow co-workers that if a student has questions regarding his or her account to please transfer the student to 217-786-2480 or feel free to provide the phone number for students to contact us. If Student Accounts is unable to answer the call when it comes in, there is a voicemail set up and we will return the call shortly. We’ve been made aware of multiple situations lately in which the incorrect phone number is provided to students or students are transferred to employees unable to assist them, both of which create additional issues for students.
Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you!
