(a) Car pools shall consist of at least three participating state employees not having the same domicile and who normally drive their vehicles to work.
(b) A newly established car pool, meeting the requirements of this section as determined by the Texas Department of Public Safety, shall be assigned a reserved space as near as possible to the building in which they work, provided this would not result in the dislocation of any employee having a previously assigned reserved space.
(c) Responsibility for the car pool shall be given to a designated member of the car pool, whose identification as such shall be recorded in the parking records. Notice to the designated member for any purpose set out in these sections shall be deemed notice to all members of the car pool.
(d) Only one vehicle in each car pool shall be parked in state lots or garages. Should two members of the same car pool need to drive their vehicles, the second vehicle must notify the parking administration immediately upon arrival.
(e) Assignment of a reserved space to a car pool shall result in the automatic forfeiture of any previous assignment to the members of the car pool. Subsequent departure of a car pool member, or dissolution of the car pool itself will not restore any parking assignment previously forfeited by a member.
(f) Departure of a car pool member will not work as automatic forfeiture of the car pool assignment unless the membership falls below three members and a new member cannot be found within 60 days to restore the car pool to the minimum qualifying number.
(g) Dissolution of a car pool for any reason will not give the individual members any right to the priority space assigned to that car pool.
