Terms To Know
Home Area: Parking areas located at or adjacent to the office, laboratory, building or otherwise primary assigned work location of the individual(s) authorized to use the permit. This may differ from the campus address the university has on file for an individual. Home area time restrictions are in place to create space turn-over and provide parking spaces to all with the same needs and eligibility. Repeated disregard of this and other restrictions as they pertain to the permit may result in revocation of this privilege.
Department Business Permit: This permit provides short-term access to parking areas in order to administrate or attend meetings and/or transport small items or small quantities of items needed to perform job functions. These permits are limited to three hours of parking in spaces requiring permits and are not allowed parking in service vehicle spaces. Following proper authorization, students may use this permit for the purposes of performing department related functions.
Service Vehicle Permit: A permit which provides access to parking areas in order to transport tools, equipment, large items or items in large quantities needed to perform job functions in areas of campus other than the home area, for more than two hours at a time. In the home area these permits are limited to two hours of parking in spaces, or thirty (30) minutes of parking in a service vehicle space. Outside of the authorized home area, are valid in service vehicle spaces or spaces requiring a permit at all times. In some circumstances, permits may be authorized for specific lots only.
Service Vehicle Space: A parking space posted with a sign or markings indicating service vehicle permits are required. University vehicles and vehicles with valid service vehicle permits or vendor permits are the only vehicles authorized to park here.

Departments requiring supplemental parking permits must apply to Transportation and Parking Services by sending an email to parking@uvm.edu to request the relevant paperwork.
As always, only one vehicle may use these permits at a time. Any tickets that are issued due to a failure of the administrator to assign the correct vehicle via the TPS portal will be charged to the department.
