The Department of Campus Safety & Securi-ty Office of Transportation & Office of Park-ing & Transportation will launch its initiative to transition to a “Virtual" Parking Permit. Beginning fall 2015, parking permits will be associated with a vehicle’s license plate ra-ther than a traditional windshield sticker or hangtag. All faculty and staff will be re-quired to register their vehicle information (a max of two vehicles). Sophomores, juniors, seniors, and graduate students with a vehicle will be required to register their vehicle information (a max of one vehicle). Effective September 30, all cur-rent student and faculty/staff permits (ARP, ARP-HC, GAT, and EMP) will become inva-lid and the new registration system (License Plate Recognition) will take effect along with parking enforcement (Ticketing, Towing, and/or Booting) on October 5. The tentative start date for the License Plate Recognition (LPR) online system will be on or before September 25. We thank you for your patience as we transi-tion to this new and improved permit man-agement system.
