A Private Parking Space is for the use of an individual holding a specific university position. The university limits the number of Private Parking Spaces to manage the campus parking supply. Use of Private Parking Spaces results in costs to the university by reducing the inventory of spaces available for sharing with others, reducing a departments available spending on other resources, and impacting the university’s ability to reach its sustainable transportation and carbon reduction goals.
The Vice President for Finance and Administration determines the limited selection of positions that are eligible for a Private Parking Space. His or her determination is based on the position’s requirement to frequently travel using their personal automobile during business hours as a condition of their employment, and for the convenience of the university to minimize costs associated with lost time and/or productivity.
In the designated Private space. A valid Private Parking space permit and a valid Commuter permit must be assigned to the vehicle(s) allowed to park in the designated space.
