Be considerate of others; parking farther away from the front door to allow those

If possible, carpool with others.
If Harbor House and street parking is full, there is a municipal parking lot next to the library, on
Center Street.
NEVER park in a handicap space without a handicap tag. The parking lot is checked by the
Herndon Police and if they find a car parked in a handicap space without a valid handicap tag, you
will receive a fine and/or have your vehicle towed.
