Maximum School of Dentistry parking spaces: 87
*This lot has recently expanded from 45 spaces to 87 spaces for our dentistry patients.

When this maximum has been reached, REEF will stop providing validation codes to open the gate until one of the 87 allotted spaces becomes available (as another School of Dentistry patient leaves).

Anyone entering the lot without receiving a validation code for the School of Dentistry discount will be charged the full fee of $20.
