Faculty-staff parking permits are paid for through payroll deduction. Those who wish to pay with a credit card must do so in person at the Parking and Transportation Services customer service office in Suite 110 of the Elgin Street Garage. There is a $50 processing fee when paying with a credit card.
Three-wheel vehicles such as the Polaris Slingshot require a vehicle permit and are not eligible for a motorcycle permit. Three-wheel vehicles cannot be parked in motorcycle spaces but must use a standard parking space.
Vehicles are not allowed to remain on campus for more than 72 hours. Residents of University of Houston Student Housing and Residential Life are exempt from this rule. For commuters, the 72-hour parking rule will be enforced at all times. However, a commuter can contact Parking and Transportation Services (parking@uh.edu or 832-842-1097) if they need to leave their vehicle on campus for more than 72 hours during the summer break, winter break, or spring break. This policy is in place to ensure the efficient use of parking resources and to maintain a safe and organized campus environment. Parking and Transportation Services must be able to contact the owner of any vehicle in case it needs to be moved for special events, unforeseen emergencies, cleaning or maintenance.
Faculty-Staff Permits Never Expire
- Faculty-staff permits no longer have an expiration date.
- No matter what type of faculty-staff parking permit you currently have, it will continue to remain active until you cancel it.
- You no longer have to purchase a new parking permit every year.
You Can Cancel Your Permit at Any Time
- If you no longer need or want your parking permit, you can cancel it in your myParking account.
- Once you cancel it, the change happens immediately, so only do it after you no longer will be parking on campus.
- You can exchange your parking permit at any time for a different one as long as the permit you want has availability.
