F10 and F12 Guidelines for Obtaining a Permit

  • Each Chancellor/Vice Chancellor has been allocated a number of spaces in the F10 and F12 parking lots and is responsible for managing his/her own allocation of space. The methodology for allocating these spaces may vary from one Vice Chancellor to another.
  • Faculty and staff parking in these lots will pay the current reserved parking spot rate.
  • Individuals wishing to park in the F10 or F12 parking lots must contact their respective Vice Chancellor. Please note, it is up to the individual Vice Chancellor's discretion on how these spaces are allocated.
  • The Vice Chancellor for Business and Finance's Office will maintain an annual listing of the allocation and will distribute it to the Chancellor/Vice Chancellor's in May of each year so if there are changes to be made, it can be accomplished just prior to the annual sales parking permit sale period.
