Bakersfield College opens "solar parking"

As of Monday, November 8, 2010, Bakersfield College has finally opened up the parking on Panorama Drive and Mount Vernon (by Fine Arts). It has been closed since the summer to install solar panels as supplemental power for the campus and shade for the cars.

Opening up the parking will really help those who had to arrive extra early to find parking wherever they could get it, including surrounding neighborhoods.

Funny how even the smallest student parking area is so important. If the new structure is taken care of, it will be even more so - both for electricity and shaded parking.
