To avoid being issued a citation, plan to purchase an Hourly Permit at $1 per hour for up to 4 hours, a 12-hour Permit for $5 or a 24-hour Permit for $10 from one of the seven dispensers on campus if you do not have a current annual student permit or faculty/staff permit. Each dispenser location is represented on the map by a red circle around a red "P". Click here to open Parking Map. Click here for more info about Dispenser Permits. At present most of the dispensers are equipped to accept Discover, MasterCard or Visa credit cards as well as U.S. nickels, dimes, quarters, paper dollars, five dollar bills and dollar coins only. As of 23August2011 the dispenser permits cost $10 for 24 hours, $5 for 12 hours or $1 per hour for up to four hours.
Permits will go on sale August 1, 2012. Parking Services will be open from 8a.m.- 5p.m. Monday-Friday to assist you. During the Move-In Days weekend of August 25-26 we will also be open Saturday & Sunday from 11a.m.- 3p.m.
WHAT’S NEW FOR PARKING AT UNC FALL 2012:
STUDENTS:
Hangtags are NOT available this year. The new window stickers are repositionable. You must purchase your permit online through URSA, have it billed to your student account, & pick it up in our office. Your temporary permit is only good for 14 days, so if you will be arriving on campus later than that -- hold off on buying your permit. "K" permits are the only ones that we have a limited number of -- regular student permits do not have a rush or time limit on them. The "K" permits are for students that have a lot of classes in Kepner Hall -- primarily Business Majors.
DISABLED PARKING PERMITS
Parking Services will no longer be issuing DISABLED PERMITS or asking for documentation of disabilities. To park in designated disabled spaces, you need to display BOTH a current UNC Student permit with a current state issued disabled placard or license plate.
MOTORCYCLE AND MOPED PERMITS AND PARKING
Parking Services will no longer be issuing MOTORCYLE PERMITS. You will need to purchase a locking device in addition to the annual Faculty/Staff permit. The locking device is $20 and may be reused each year. You must purchase them in our office with cash/check or credit card. The annual permit is inserted into the locking device and then it is locked to your motorcycle or moped.
Beginning this year, you may park in any designated motorcycle space or in any REGULAR SPACE in the lots your permit is valid.
UNIVERSITY CENTER LOT CHANGE
The north east parking lot at the UC, A-LOT, is being designated as two separate lots. The lower section (Bear Logic, Einstein Bros Bagels, Subway) will be designated as Lot A-1. Lot A-1 will be reserved for HOURLY AND DAILY PERMITS ONLY. Hourly and daily permits may be purchased from one of the PAY TO PARK dispenser boxes on campus. A new Pay to Park dispenser box is being installed in lot A-1. Vehicles may also display either the blue or yellow daily scratch off permits from Parking Services or the UC information desk. NO ANNUAL PERMITS WILL BE VALID IN LOT A-1! Lot A-2 is open to any valid UNC annual permit.
FACULTY/STAFF:
PERMIT SALES
This year ALL PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS and CREDIT CARD PURCHASES MUST BE DONE ON-LINE, no payroll sales or credit card sales will be processed in the Parking Office. Anyone coming into the office to purchase a permit with payroll deduction or credit card will be directed to the self-serve kiosk in our office where you will complete the transaction and print out your 14 day temporary permit. You may either come back in two business days to pick up your annual permit or you may have it mailed to you at your home address (Faculty/Staff ONLY).
PERMITS: ANNUAL HANG TAG ONLY – NO SEMESTER PERMITS OR WINDOW STICKERS
Parking Services will be issuing the Faculty and Staff annual hang tag permits. Permit sales will be prorated monthly. If you feel you only need to park for the fall semester be sure you purchase your permit on line and select Payroll Deduction as your method of payment. This way you will only be paying for the months you are here and when you return your permit (before the 15th of the month) your deductions will be stopped. Permits returned after the 15th of each month will still be drawn from that month’s paycheck.

Attention Faculty and Staff!
The option to have your parking permit deducted Pre-Tax is available. If you want your permit deducted Pre-Tax, you must choose the Pre-Tax Deduction option on the parking permit registration form or the online permit registration page. Permits will be deducted over the number of pay periods remaining through July. You may have additional permits deducted, but only ONE permit can be purchased Pre-Tax. There will be no refunds issued for Pre-Tax parking permits. For information regarding retirement/Pre-Tax deductions, please contact UNC Human Resources at 970-351-2718. If you have questions or need more information concerning your parking permit registration, please contact the Parking Services Office at 970-351-1971. If you experience an error, e-mail Amanda Mitchell with your Bear # & the information about the error (error #, screen shot if possible, etc.). If having your permit mailed to you, choose the RESERVE option when prompted. Post-tax permits need to be paid up front with credit card.
When a UNC employee who was paying for their parking permit(s) via monthly payroll deductions or via monthly payments then terminates UNC employment, they need to return their permit(s) to UNC Parking Services in order to stop the obligation to make payments. Click here for more detail.
No tax revenue, student fee monies, or tuition funds are allocated for Parking Services. Therefore maintenance, improvement and security of all parking lots on campus must be paid for by funds received from permit sales and citation fines.
