Article II: Virtual or Physical Parking Permits

Section 2-1: Registration and Issuance of Virtual or Physical Parking Permits

In order to relieve and control the congested traffic conditions on Campus, any faculty or staff member or student who owns or operates one or more Vehicles on Campus (including motorcycles, motorbikes, and mopeds) must register their motor Vehicle(s) with the Administrative Officer or their appointed delegate. Presentation of state Vehicle registration or appropriate proof of ownership may be required.
Virtual and Physical Parking Permits are intended to support general access to workplaces and classrooms but do not guarantee the available space will be in close proximity to the desired location.
During Large Scale Events, the Administrative Officer, or their designee, reserves the right to remove any parking spaces for normal or reserved permitted use and designate the spaces as restricted for event parking. Every effort will be made to provide alternative parking for those who desire to access Campus academic facilities or workspace during a Large Scale Event.
It shall be the responsibility of the faculty, staff or student to provide accurate and up to date Vehicle and contact information when obtaining a Virtual or Physical Parking Permit and to ensure that any changes are reported to Parking and Transportation Services to keep account information current.
No faculty, staff member, or student may register a Vehicle not owned by that individual, their spouse, a parent or guardian, or assigned to the individual by their employer (proof of employment will be required).
A registered vehicle owner may request that PaTS manually assign their Vehicle to multiple accounts so long as the accounts are properly associated with the Vehicle (See Section 2-1(5) and Section 2-1(13-14)).
Only one (1) Vehicle associated with the same account is permitted to park on campus at the same time (in locations other than visitor or hourly parking areas). If multiple Vehicles associated with the same account are found to be on campus at the same time (in locations other than visitor or hourly parking areas), citations may be written to ALL Vehicles associated with the same account on campus at the same time.
Because Dealer License Plates may be moved from one Vehicle to another Vehicle without changing registration, Parking and Transportation Services requires the Vehicle operator to contact the PaTS Communication Center with Vehicle and license plate information so it can be temporarily linked to the Vehicle operator’s parking account on a temporary basis for only the amount of time the Vehicle will be used. Failure to inform Parking and Transportation Services of the use of a Vehicle with dealer plates may result in the Vehicle operator being responsible for citations associated with the dealer Vehicle that were not incurred by the Vehicle operator.
The Administrative Officer or their appointed delegate shall have the authority to establish the number of Vehicles which any faculty or staff member or student may register and operate pursuant to these Ordinances.
Customers who have a vehicle with a temporary license plate should use the letters and numbers printed on that temporary plate to register the vehicle. Vehicle registration should be updated when a permanent license plate is obtained.
Except as otherwise provided in these Ordinances, faculty and staff members and students must purchase a Virtual or Physical Parking Permit to park on Campus. Upon agreement to the parking terms and conditions and payment of the appropriate fees, Parking and Transportation Services shall issue an individual a Virtual or Physical Parking Permit. The parking permit entitles the individual to park in designated campus parking areas but does not entitle the parking permit holder to a reserved space within said parking areas, except as provided in these Ordinances.
Faculty, staff, and students may register additional Vehicles to their Virtual or Physical Parking Permit online or by notifying Parking and Transportation Services and supplying the required information as described in these Ordinances so long as the additional Vehicles meet the proper criteria stated in these Ordinances.
Adding Vehicles to Faculty/Staff parking accounts

a. Up to three (3) Vehicles per Virtual or Physical Parking Permit may be registered at one time to any Faculty/Staff account. However, only one (1) Vehicle is permitted to park on campus at any given time (unless parking in a visitor or hourly parking area with proper visitor/hourly parking fees being paid).

b. If the same Vehicle is being registered to two (2) different accounts within the same classification (i.e. spouses who are both Faculty/Staff), parking privileges associated with the account which lists the shared Vehicle as the “primary” Vehicle will supersede any other privileges.

c. Vehicles cannot be shared between different accounts outside the same classification (i.e. parent is Faculty/Staff, son/daughter is Student). Temporary exceptions to this policy must be granted by the Director of Parking and Transportation Services or their designee.

d. Vehicles assigned to multiple accounts must be properly associated with those account holders (See Section 2-1(5)).
Adding Vehicles to Student parking accounts

a. Up to two (2) Vehicles per Virtual or Physical Parking Permit may be registered at one time to any Student account. However, only one (1) Vehicle is permitted to park on campus at any given time (unless parking in a visitor or hourly parking area with proper visitor/hourly parking fees being paid).

b. One (1) Vehicle can only be associated with one (1) student account and cannot be shared between other student accounts. Vehicles also cannot be shared between different accounts outside the same classification (i.e. parent is Faculty/Staff, son/daughter is Student). Temporary exceptions to this policy must be granted by the Director of Parking and Transportation Services or their designee.

c. Vehicles assigned to multiple accounts must be properly associated with those account holders (See Section 2-1(5)).
Only one Vehicle per Virtual or Physical Parking Permit shall be operated on Campus at one time. If operation of more than one Vehicle on Campus at the same time is necessary, faculty and staff members and students must purchase a full-fee Virtual Parking Permit for each Vehicle.
Full-Year Virtual Parking Permits issued at the beginning of the Academic Year are valid until the day prior to the beginning of the next Academic Year.
Partial-Year Virtual Parking Permits are valid until the end date stated during purchase.
Physical Parking Permits are valid until the stated expiration date on the Physical Parking Permit.
No Virtual or Physical Parking Permit shall be issued to a student until the student requesting the Parking Permit provides the name of their insurer, the policy number under which the student has financial responsibility, and certification that the Vehicle is insured at the levels set out in North Carolina General Statutes 20-279, or agrees to terms and conditions if ordering on-line
Official state Vehicles that park in assigned spaces or assigned parking areas must be registered with Parking and Transportation Services. The department to which the Vehicle is assigned will register the Vehicle’s state-issued license plate number, which will serve as the Vehicle’s virtual permit. If the Vehicle does not have a state-issued license plate (i.e. electric carts, utility/golf carts), a University-issued license plate must be purchased through Parking and Transportation Services.
The Administrative Officer or their designee may prohibit issuance of a Virtual or Physical Parking Permit until all outstanding fines and fees are paid.

Section 2-2: Parking Permit and Other Fees

The Administrative Officer or their appointed delegate is hereby authorized and directed to collect Parking-related fees.
Full-Year Virtual Permits – The Full-Year Virtual Parking Permit fee for Vehicles shall be paid at the beginning of the Fall Semester of each year; or when any person first becomes a faculty or staff member or student of the University; or when a Vehicle is first acquired by a faculty or staff member or student and at the beginning of the Fall Semester of each year thereafter.

Parking permits purchased by payroll deduction will be deducted for the first full month on the first deduction. Subsequent deductions will be made by dividing the monthly amount by the number of pay periods in each month. In the event of three pay periods during one month for temporary employees, the third payroll date will not have a deduction.
Recurring Credit Card-on-File payments may be used as an approved payment method for qualified transactions.
Pursuant to University Policy 601.8, Appropriate Use of University Funds, no University fund type may be used for purchase of personal Virtual or Physical Parking Permits.
See Appendix A: Schedule of Fees for a list of parking permit and other parking-related fees.
The Board of Trustees may approve changes in the schedule of fees at any time prior to the semester or summer session during which the changes are to be effective.
Failure to make fee payments, acts of fraud, returned checks, chargebacks, or other actions that result in non-payment may result in the University sending the amount owed through student accounts (Student), payroll (Faculty/Staff) or third-party billing and collections and may also incur additional administrative fees.

The Administrative Officer or their appointed delegate may grant refunds in special circumstances on a case-by-case basis.
If a student withdraws from the University and has been assigned a physical or virtual parking permit, the student must return the physical permit to Parking and Transportation Services or contact Parking and Transportation Services with the request for return of the virtual parking permit upon withdrawal.
