Authorization for service permits may be required from the appropriate vice president. Departments will be charged an administrative fee for each service permit issued. A service permit may only be used with a valid Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ state university parking credential. Holders of service permits may park in designated service spaces for a period of thirty minutes unless otherwise posted, or in any faculty/staff or student parking space for the amount of time needed to conduct official university business except E-1, state, metered, disability, and motorcycle spaces or where signs prohibit.

Persons with a short-term disability (one month or less) can contact the parking services office for instructions on obtaining a temporary parking credential. Disability credential fees are the same as regular credential fees for faculty, staff and student respectively. Disability credentials are honored in all disability parking spaces at any time.
