Reserved Parking Spaces

Some spaces on campus are reserved for specific reasons. These spaces are marked with signs and restrictions are enforced 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Unauthorized vehicles will be ticketed and may be towed. See www.unco.edu/parking/rules/lotinfo for more information.

Parking Lot Restrictions

Parking restrictions for fire lanes, spaces for disabled persons, timed spaces, no-parking zones and service spaces are enforced 24 hours a day, seven days a week, in all lots.

Permits are required 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday-Friday except in these lots: Davis, H, P, PS, R, and T, which are enforced 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Disabled Vehicles

If your vehicle becomes disabled while parked at a meter, you should notify Parking Services immediately to prevent the vehicle from being ticketed every two hours. A disabled vehicle must be removed within 24 hours.

Parking Regulations Enforcement

If you receive a parking ticket, you have 10 calendar days from the issuance date to pay the fine, file for a hearing or report any problems with the ticket to the Parking Services Office.

After 10 days a billing/late fee will be added to the amount of the ticket. Delinquent tickets can also result in additional fees; a hold being placed on registration, graduation or transcripts; and eventually a referral to state collections. Vehicles may be booted and/or towed at owner expense for repeated, unpaid violations.

Ticket Appeal Process

To contest a ticket, you may request a hearing. Parking Services will provide a hearing appeals form and brochure, and will schedule a hearing at the convenience of the Hearing Officer.

You must submit the hearing appeals form to Parking Services within 10 calendar days from the date of ticket issuance. If you cannot be present at the hearing, your case will be heard on the basis of your written statement only.

A $10 hearing fee will be assessed to each ticket that has been upheld in the hearing process. A written disposition notice will be sent to you explaining the results of the hearing.

The fine for a ticket upheld at a hearing must be paid at Parking Services within 10 calendar days of the date of the disposition notice.

Student Permit Refund Policy

At the beginning of each semester, a refund may be received for a permit that was purchased at the beginning of that semester. The percent of the parking permit refund is based on the date of a student’s total withdrawal from classes.

Fall Semester and Full-Year Permits

No refund after Sept 21 (the first four weeks of classes)

Spring Semester Permits

No student refund after Feb 4 (the first four weeks of classes). Faculty/staff permit refunds are considered only in cases of job abolishment or medical emergency.

Broken Meter or Dispenser Box

If you encounter a broken meter, you must move to a different metered space if one is available. Please report broken meters to Parking Services as soon as possible, including the pole and meter number.

Please report malfunctions in the Daily Permit Dispenser boxes to the Parking Services Office. If a box is not working, please go to another location to purchase a daily permit. Daily permit dispensers are located in most student parking lots.

Purchasing Long-Term Parking Permits

Semester and full-year parking permits are available for purchase by students, faculty and staff.

Parking permits are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Permits allow purchasers access to various campus lots, but do not guarantee parking spaces. Early arrival is recommended.

Window sticker parking permits are not transferable to another person or vehicle. Hang tag parking permits may be transferred between vehicles, not individuals.

Permits for Persons with Disabilities

Proper documentation must be provided to the Disability Support Services office prior to purchasing a disabled parking permit in person or online. Please call the DSS office at (970) 351-2289 or Parking Services at (970) 351-1971 for documentation requirements and information.

Short-Term Parking

The following options for short-term parking are available:

Please use metered spaces or purchase daily permits as described above in Short-Term Parking.

Contractors and service vendors anticipating frequent trips can purchase Service Permits from the Parking Services Office.

School buses may park at the west end of Y-Lot without a permit if prior approval has been granted by Parking Services or Events Planning.

Permit Replacement or Exchange

There will be a $5 fee to exchange your UNC parking permit. If you do not bring your UNC permit to exchange, a $35 replacement fee will be charged. If a replacement permit is issued and the permit declared as lost/stolen is subsequently used, a $100 fine and a $50 boot fee will be assessed. Lost or stolen permits should be reported to the Parking Services Office immediately.

Expired permits should be shredded or otherwise destroyed.

Vehicles Being Repaired

Temporary parking permits are available to drivers who have a vehicle in for repairs. The Parking Services Office will issue a temporary permit for up to two weeks. A nominal fee will be assessed.

If repairs will require more than two weeks, you’ll need to supply a note from the repair shop with an estimated date the repairs will be completed.

Special Event Parking

UNC permits are not valid for special event parking. Parking Services has the right to reserve campus parking lots and restrict access on university streets during special events.
