FAQ

Yes, R2 and NC (behind Cline Library) zones sell out quickly. Often a waiting list may be created. Permits go on sale August 1st and you can reserve the permit without paying for it until tuition and other fees are due in the fall.

Semester or yearly permits may have up to five vehicles registered to them, with only one vehicle displaying the permit parked on campus at any given time. Additional vehicles associated to the permit may park on campus simultaneously by utilizing any short-term or daily option (meters, garages, etc.) and displaying a valid permit. Permit owners are responsible for citations that are issued to any vehicle displaying or registered to their permit without regard to the operator of the vehicle displaying the permit.

As most permits are virtual, there is no need to worry. Garage permits are a physical permit to enable the gate. If the permit is forgotten, email ask.parking@nau.edu for a short term accommodation.

The employee ID will be added to the permit after midnight on the day of purchase. When entering the facility the ID will be entered using the seven digit code only, do not use the preceding zero’s, followed by the pound (hash tag) sign. Please use the call button for any issues or call our dispatch line at 928-523-9066.

Yearly and semester permits are reposition and may have up to five vehicles registered to them, with only one vehicle displaying the permit parked on campus at any given time. A vehicle may be added to the permit by visiting /parking and logging into “Manage My Parking” then selecting “Manage My Vehicles.” The added vehicle will automatically link to any current permit. When adding a vehicle to your account you are assuming all responsibility for any citations or fees associated with the vehicle.

The vehicle is eligible for removal from the account once the account balance is zero by emailing ask.parking@nau.edu. Please be aware that future citations issued to the removed vehicle may result in the vehicle being re-associated to the account. It is the responsibility of the registered owner or primary driver to notify PSS immediately if the vehicle is stolen or sold to another party.

Yearly and semester permits that have lost the adhesiveness may be exchanged at no charge if the original permit is brought into the office for an exchange.

A permit may be exchanged at any time of the year, based on space availability and residential status, for a $5 exchange fee plus the difference in upgrading if required. This fee is waived for students who are placed in temporary housing and then receive their permanent assignment. If exchanging a permit, the vehicle must park in the original zone until the exchange is completed and the vehicle(s) linked to the permit.

Daily permits are also available online by visiting manage my parking. The employee day permit is virtual. Simply order online and link to the vehicle to be used that day.

If your intent to return for spring is contingent upon approval of your application for study abroad, an internship program, or a student teaching program, please contact our office to request an exception. We encourage students to purchase a full year permit to save money in case the application is not approved, but if accepted to a student abroad program, internship, or student teaching, you may return the permit for a partial refund.

The size of our campus community and number of vehicles on campus each day has caused serious traffic congestion and pedestrian safety issues in the past. Without parking regulations, drivers would spend more time driving and searching for a parking space. By designating parking areas during peak times, it allows for all people on campus to travel more efficiently and safely.

During the day, the campus shuttle service can transport you from south campus to north campus. After 4:30 p.m., your south commuter permit may be used in lots designated as “all permits after 4:30 p.m.” the nearest ones being lot P7A, P28A, or P6, excluding any designated stalls within the lots.

Health Services pays for client parking. Parking is located in the Health and Learning Center lot south of the building (P28A). A code is required to enter at the kiosk to receive a free temporary parking permit, and is included in the appointment reminder email. If you visit Health Services as a walk-in client, follow the instructions on the kiosk located in the parking lot. The temporary permit should be displayed in its entirety on the passenger side windshield, and expires two hours after issuance.

Health Professions pays for non-affiliated client parking. Parking is located on south campus in lot P48A. A permit is issued from the kiosk with a code given to you by them. The temporary permit should be displayed in its entirety on the passenger side windshield. Students, staff and faculty are ineligible to use Health Professions permits and may utilize any short-term parking option.

Your license plate acts as your permit and therefore must face the drive aisle. Cameras, mounted to university service vehicles, capture the plate information and check to ensure the plate is associated to an active virtual permit and is in the correct location.

Accounts will be limited to five active license plates at any one time. However, vehicles can be added or deactivated from the virtual permit at any time using the online portal.

Physical permits are necessary to open the gates. As technology changes, moving to a virtual permit may become an option. As the campus is using License Plate Recognition, the license plate must face the drive aisle when parked in or out of the garage.

Users will have a choice to park with their official Arizona license plate facing the drive aisle or can, for a one-time fee, purchase a parking placard that can be attached to the front of the vehicle. This option will be available to vehicles with plates from other states that only issue one official license plate. Using the online “manage My Parking” system, when ordering your virtual permit, users may opt in for the additional plate. You can also order in the office. The cost is $20.

The new system will not change the threshold to be booted. The threshold includes any vehicle owing $150 in citations or having 3 “non-processed” citations. However, these vehicles will be more readily identified even if parked properly. We strongly encourage users to not get a citation or to at least make payment before reaching this threshold.

University transit parking services staff will still have a strong presence on campus to protect the parking for those for whom the parking is intended, to provide Motorist Assistance and to address any needs in parking areas such as maintenance. Additionally, some license plates may need to be manually entered or verified.

The new system will require that the license plate is visible and therefore users are encouraged to check their license plate to ensure it is not obstructed from view.

There are campus regulations that specifically address skateboards and rollerblades in our rules and regulations. While you do not need to register either one, you must adhere to the policies regarding usage on campus.
