Department Parking Coordinator

Parking Coordinators liaison with department employees and Transportation and Parking throughout the year to renew, assign and cancel parking based on the criteria established by the individual unit to manage parking resources. Additionally, parking coordinators are the primary contact to provide guidance and relay information to units about transportation.

Departments receive parking permits based on the allocation formula. Each department is responsible for developing and publicizing criteria for parking distribution.

Updates
