9.9.1 Parking

http://www.uwrf.edu/public-safety/parking/

Classified and unclassified employees who desire vehicle parking spaces must apply to the Director of Public Safety. Application may be done in person (basement of South Hall) or on line. It is an employee’s responsibility to be informed of the campus parking regulations (see website above). Longevity of service with the institution is the basis used for assigning permits to parking lots closest to the buildings of employment. The number of assignments may exceed the actual number of stalls by 10% in order to take advantage of normal absenteeism. Permits are sold on both a 12-month basis and academic year basis and may be paid for in cash at the time of purchase or through payroll deduction.

9.9.2 ID Cards
