If a driver has a DUI on their driving record and has completed a Diversion Program, to drop
charges, they will need to provide proof that the DUI charge was dismissed due to the Diversion
Program to be eligible to drive COCC vehicles. Until documentation has been received, the driver
will not be able to apply for driving approval until three years after their arrest date
Depending on the severity of the violations, approval can be given at the discretion of the Director
of Campus Services or the Vice President for Administration
Drivers must be 21 or older
Reservations
Requests must be made to reserve a vehicle by submitting a Campus Services Staff Helpdesk
ticket. Category will be “Front Office”, “Vehicle Reservation”. One-week notice is required for
reservations of most fleet vehicles. One-month notice is required for: Three or more vehicles; 15
passenger vans; or the request is for three consecutive days or longer. Requests for term vans will
be taken once, at the beginning of the term. Department Administrators will be contacted prior to
the start of each term to place requests for scheduled field trips. On your request, please include
the date/time of departure/ return, along with the department and drivers names.
If the reservation is on a weekend, please ensure arrangements are made to pick up keys before
4 pm on Friday or 1:00 pm during the summer term.
Each vehicle has a designated parking spot where it is to remain until your reservation pick up
time. Upon your return, park the vehicle in its designated spot. Prompt return of the vehicles is
mandatory because vehicles may be scheduled again for another department on the same day.
A late drop-off fee may be charged for vehicles returned after the return date/time specified in the
original reservation request.
Issuance of keys and fuel cards
Keys will be checked out for a specific van. In most instances, each key will be provided with a
Pacific Pride card and Chevron card for your convenience. Fuel cards will be signed out to you at
pick up, please verify cards before signing as these will be your responsibility while signed out to
you. It is mandatory to fill out the vehicle mileage slip for each trip. If unsure what account to charge
please see your department admin for this information. Campus Services will verify the beginning
mileage before your arrival; please confirm this information before you leave and if there is a
discrepancy please see Campus Services before you leave with the vehicle. Fuel cards are to be
used for the COCC or Enterprise vehicle fuel only. Using cards for unauthorized purchases
constitutes fraud and the user will be held liable. The charge for usage of COCC fleet vehicles is
$0.82/ mile, there is a minimum of a $35.00 charge.
Outside rentals will not automatically be issued fuel cards. Please verify with Campus Services if a
card is available for your rental period. Fuel expenses along with the rental charge are the
responsibility of your department. Please make certain you have department approval before you
secure a rental vehicle. If you have not received approval, the costs for the fuel and the rental will be
your responsibility. For Outside rate information, please see :
www.cocc.edu/Campus-
Services/Vehicle-Use---Reservations/ These rates are subject to change without notice.
The rental contract (pink slip) will need to be returned to Campus Services upon the return of your
outside vehicle rental. If the fuel is not at the required level, the outside rental agency will add on
their current fuel charge prices to your invoice. The outside rental agency's hours are 8:00am -
5:00pm. Vehicles returned after 5:00pm will incur charges through the following day, as will vehicles
being delivered the evening before an early morning rental. The rental company is open Saturday
9:00am -12:00pm. Invoices for outside rentals will be sent to your departments' administrative
assistant. Direct payment to the rental agency will be handled through the individual departments.
Cancellations
All cancellations must be made within 48 hours of your scheduled rental or you may incur charges.
For outside rentals of minivans, large SUV's 12 and 15 passenger vans, 3 days' notice of
cancellation must be made in order to avoid being charged.
Damage
The department of the staff/student driver driving the vehicle may be charged the first $500.00
deductible in certain circumstances. This would be determined by the insurance carrier.
COCC will not assume financial responsibility for damage caused by the negligence of the driver
renting a COCC or rental vehicle. This includes, but is not limited to, situations where the driver was
not acting in good faith, had been using the vehicle for non-COCC related reasons, failed to meet
licensing requirements or comply with these regulations. In these cases, the driver may be required
to pay all costs resulting from the accident.
Body damage or accidents in or on the vehicle must be reported within 24 hours to Campus
Services and the Campus Public Safety Department. Any other issues including maintenance issues
that need addressed may be reported on the vehicle mileage slip; please also verbally inform us of
this issue so that we may address it in a timely fashion. Rarely, vehicles may be deemed unsafe to
drive and must be pulled off the line for immediate maintenance. We will do everything we can to
supply a substitute vehicle on these occasions, but it is highly recommended that all vehicle users
have a contingency plan in place on the chance no other vehicle is available.
Cleanliness
Users are responsible for removing all garbage from vehicles and maintaining its cleanliness. Pets,
smoking, smokeless tobacco and alcohol are prohibited in all rental vehicles, COCC or outside
rentals. Failure to abide by these rules will result in the department incurring a $25.00 charge and
possible relinquishing of future rental rights. Anyone in the vehicle who is charged by public officials
for any non-legal actions will be responsible individually and not covered by COCC or any of its
representatives or insurance.
Weather
All college vans are equipped with studded tires during the legal period of November1st - April 1
St
.
Additionally all vans include a set of tire chains. Use of chains and choosing to drive in inclement
weather is at the user's discretion. Any financial liability resulting from negligence of the driver will
not be assumed by COCC. By signing this form, you are agreeing that you know how to properly
attach chains to tires and drive appropriately with chains on in inclement weather conditions.
Emergency Service
