This has made obtaining and owning a parking permit easier on permit holders and has reduced environmental impacts.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of a physical sticker, the license plate is the permit and must be visible from the drive aisle at all times. If a driver wishes to back in or pull forward into a space, a supplemental front plate can be purchased. Full details and information about LPR can be found on the <a href=\"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/university-transit-services\/\">UTS website<\/a> and in the <a href=\"https:\/\/nau.t2hosted.com\/Account\/Portal\">parking portal<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Permit pricing<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Permit prices reflect accommodation and maintenance needs to better serve the campus community.
