Parking Accommodations
Veterans
In adherence to Texas Transportation Code 681.008, Disabled Veterans, Congressional Medal of Honor Recipients, Former Prisoners of War, Pearl Harbor Survivors, and Purple Heart Recipients, whose vehicles display the special license plates issued by the Texas Department of Transportation, are exempt from parking fees for unreserved surface lot spaces. You are not exempt from garage and hourly parking fees.
Veterans that do not have a vehicle with special plates as stated above and possess a disability percentage of 50% or higher can provide the necessary paperwork from the Veterans Affairs Office to receive complimentary parking for registered vehicles in surface lots.
This privilege applies only to the veteran and not to anyone else driving the vehicle.
Disabled
Physically impaired individuals who possess a State of Texas disabled placard or disabled registration tags are required to register their vehicle and provide documentation to the P&T office. Disability placard documentation must be provided prior to, or within 20 minutes of parking.
Faculty, staff, and students may obtain a mobility permit to park in handicap space. Visitors may use the ParkMobile app or parking garage kiosk to pay for parking.
Temporary Impairment
Special permits are available to students or faculty/staff who must park close due to a temporary injury or illness with supplemental documentation from a physician. Requests for temporary special permits must be made to P&T. Temporary special permits are not authorized to park in any area designated for the physically challenged and/or disabled. To be eligible for special parking permissions, the student or faculty/staff member must have the equivalent of a Zone 2 permit.
