Rt. 49 Green Line no longer runs off-campus. Discount remote parking at Starlight Cinema has been eliminated because off-campus apartments are no longer partnering with PaTS to supplement the route. Without that support, it’s no longer financially feasible to pay Starlight for weekday lease on their lot and security for the lot. Rt. 47 Yellow Line no longer runs on weekends. Weekend service to South Village had extended hours last year to accommodate freshmen residents who were required to park in North Deck. Now that South Village deck is open, weekend service is no longer necessary.
Football Event Parking Regular UNC Charlotte parking permits are not valid for football game days. Residents who park in Lot 25 (on Cameron, across from Wallis) must move their vehicles to North Deck or another R-designated (blue) lot by midnight the Friday before any home game, or risk being towed. Faculty/Staff permits will not be valid in any parking decks or lots assigned for football event parking. Reserved spaces located in game day parking lots will not be available on football game days. —1—

Expect parking to be at near capacity during the ďŹ rst two weeks of the semester. Nearly EVERYONE will be on campus, attending class, buying books, paying tuition, etc. After that, trafďŹ c and parking patterns settle down.
Permit enforcement begins on the ďŹ rst day of class, every semester If you don’t have a parking permit by then, you will not be allowed to park in main decks and lots. Either plan to pay to park in a Visitor deck (if full, you will be directed to where you may legally park until a permit is purchased) or purchase a daily temporary permit from the Parking and Transportation Services OfďŹ ce (#23 on campus map) for $6 per day.

There’s no getting around the fact that campus has grown so much that parking closest to the academic center of campus is very limited from late morning until early afternoon. If your ďŹ rst preference for parking is full, don’t circle! Have an alternative in mind that is farther out and along a shuttle route. You may be surprised by how much easier it is to just park, ride, and get on with your day.
Trying to park close to academic buildings does not necessarily save time Average time to ďŹ nd space during peak use periods: East Decks and Union Deck, 35 minutes; West Deck, 45 minutes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT PARKING PERMITS Where can I purchase a permit?
another vehicle for a few days, go to the PaTS office, provide us with the substitute vehicle’s information, then get a temporary permit. All UNC Charlotte parking permit holders are allowed to get up to 10 days’ worth of temporary hangtags per year, at no charge.
Permits may be purchased online or in the Parking and Transportation Services Office (building #23 on Campus Map). Normal office hours are Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM - 5:00 PM. During the Fall and Spring registration periods, Student Permit pick-up and purchase stations are set up in the Student Union and hours are extended.
Are there special permits for carpools? Carpools need to be registered with PaTS; each carpool uses a single permit with multivehicle registration. The carpool permit is allowed 10 temporary day permits at no charge for those exceptions when a carpool member needs to drive separately. For more information about carpools, please visit or call the PaTS office for details. ShareTheRideNC.org offers free carpool partner matching.
What if I have to wait on a financial aid refund until I can buy a permit? If you’re unable to purchase a permit before classes and permit enforcement begins, you may buy a temporary permit from Parking and Transportation Services. Price is $6 per day.
Where can I park without a permit?
Are there special permits for motorcycles?
Visitor decks and metered parking areas are the only places where vehicles without permits may park.
Motorcycles have electronic permits. They can be registered alone or may be added to a multivehicle permit (but only one vehicle registered to that permit is allowed on campus at a time). Visit or call the PaTS office for more details. Please note that it is unsafe to operate a motorcycle through an automatic gate, therefore PaTS discourages motorcycle parking in gated areas.
Where can I park if I forget my permit? If you’ve bought a permit and just forgot it, a temporary permit can be issued at the PaTS Office. Permit holders may get up to ten (10) temporary day permits per year for their registered vehicle at no charge.
Are permit refunds available if I withdraw from or leave the University?
What if I’m graduating in December? Can I just buy a permit for a semester? All full-time permits are for the academic year. But if you graduate or withdraw before April 15, return your permit for a prorated refund. The refund schedule is available at pats.uncc. edu/permits.
People who return permits may receive a prorated refund based on the date of purchase and date of return. Night permits may not be refunded after the second week of class that semester. For more information, refer to the list of prorated refund amounts.
Are permits required on weekends?
What determines the price of a permit?
Permits are required at all times but they are currently not enforced after 6:00 PM Friday through 8:00 AM Monday unless it’s a Football home-game weekend (all vehicles must then display a valid UNC Charlotte or Game Day event permit).
What should I do if my permit is lost or stolen? If your permit is lost, come to the Parking and Transportation Services office for an affidavit and a replacement permit. A $15 replacement fee will be charged. If permit was stolen, contact police in the area where the theft occurred and bring the police report to the PaTS office. There is no replacement fee for stolen permits when a police report is presented.
Can I use a permit I have found? No. Permits are registered to a specific person and vehicle. Using a found permit may subject you to fines and other penalties. Return found permits to the PaTS Office or Campus Police.
Will I lose my parking privileges if I get too many tickets? PaTS has the authority to tow or boot a vehicle if violation tickets total four (4) or more or unpaid deck vouchers total seven (7) or more. All parking privileges will be revoked and your vehicle will remain on the Tow List until the account is cleared.
What should I do if I change cars? So that you don’t get a ticket for having a permit on a car we don’t know about, contact Parking Services right away so the vehicle can be added to your registration. Just come by the PaTS Office or call 704-687-0161.
What should I do if I temporarily need to drive another car to campus? In circumstances where you have a rental or need to use
The primary factor that determines permit price is the cost of new deck construction and replacing flat lots with decks. UNC Charlotte has had to build five parking decks in the last ten years. It’s expensive to build and maintain new parking decks necessary to accommodate enrollment and demand. Existing surface lots make way for new buildings; those spaces must be replaced with decks.
How are the proceeds from permits spent? The majority of the permit proceeds and Visitor Parking fees goes towards construction of new decks, to pay debt on existing decks, and for repairs and maintenance of all decks and lots. A small percentage is used for operations such as utilities to light the decks and lots, trash collection, cameras, personnel, etc.
Is it true that more permits are sold than the University has spaces? Yes. If permits were sold on a one-permit-to-one-space system, thousands of students would be denied the privilege to park while lots and decks would sit half empty. Few students occupy a space for more than five or six hours a day. Also, not everyone has classes or works here every day. Therefore, parking spaces turn over constantly. Sure, convenient, close-in parking is at a premium during peak class hours, but so far, Parking and Transportation Services has maintained an acceptable percentage of open spaces. That’s why measures like sales limits and excluding freshmen have so far been avoided.
Will the price of permits continue to rise? Yes, that’s expected, unless/until demand for parking on campus decreases significantly.

FAQS ABOUT CITATIONS
Will I lose my parking privileges if I get too many tickets?
Where do I pay citations? Citations may be paid by mail or in person at the PaTS OfďŹ ce. The ďŹ rst three (3) citations in an academic year, if paid within 10 days, are automatically reduced by 50% (with the exception of False Registration and parking in a space or accessibility ramp reserved for the disabled).
Parking Services has the authority to tow or boot a vehicle if violation tickets total four (4) or more or unpaid deck vouchers total seven (7) or more. Parking privileges are then revoked and your vehicle will remain on the Tow List until the account is cleared.
What if I don’t agree with the citation?
I wasn’t driving my car at the time of the citation. Do I have to pay it?
A written appeal must be ďŹ led within ten (10) business days; an online appeal form is available. Please allow 24 hours from time of issuance to ďŹ le appeal. All appeals are read and considered; decisions are emailed.
The person to whom a permit is issued is responsible for parking violations cited to the vehicle for which the permit is issued. If there is no permit, the registered owner of the vehicle is responsible.
How are the proceeds from citations spent? According to North Carolina law, the University is only allowed to retain 20% of the money collected from parking citations. The remaining 80% must be remitted to the state to support local public schools (elementary, middle and high schools).
CONTACT NUMBERS
The 20% that UNC Charlotte is allowed to keep is earmarked to cover operating costs for citation collections. Unfortunately, the cost of the enforcement and collections program signiďŹ cantly exceeds this amount.
