Eau Claire Parking and Visitors:
The DMV in the building is not open that day, so we don’t have to worry about that. People from the public can park in the front of the building, as if they were coming to the DMV.
State workers can park in the back parking lot but should park along the West fence to keep from getting a ticket. The front entrance is a more accessible entrance, with a handicap accessible button.
The back staff parking lot entrance does not have a handicap accessible button. There is an elevator to get to the second floor as well as stairs. We will have to ask everyone to sign in at the door and take a visitors badge.
