The parking office officially lists annual permits missing under the following conditions:
- A missing permit report is filed by a permit holder who suspects the permit lost or stolen.
- The permit holder leaves the university without returning the permit to the parking office.
- Parking fee payments have lapsed and the parking office’s attempts to contact the permit holder fail.
To be sure you’re not displaying a permit listed as missing:
- Purchase your permit from the parking office only. Refuse any offer to use a permit someone else purchased.
- Return a found permit to the parking office immediately. The penalty for using a permit that’s been reported missing is $300.
