Campus Parking & Transportation Policy


Effective September 4, 2007, the university will require a parking permit for all motor vehicles parking in university-restricted spaces (except those exempted as outlined by the policy). Parking requirements will be in force from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding recognized campus holidays. Parking permits will not be required on weekends. Enforcement of the policy began October 1, 2007.

All university employees who park in designated university spaces will be required to purchase a monthly parking permit at a cost of $20. For those employees who choose to purchase a permit, payment will be made through payroll deduction and can be taken out on a pre-tax basis.

Visitors to campus will continue to be required to obtain temporary parking permits. Temporary permits will only be valid for the date and vehicle for which it is originally issued. Pre-printed temporary passes will also be made available by Campus Safety to selected administrative and departmental offices on campus for temporary use of guests and for job-required usage of personal vehicles.

Adjunct faculty members teaching at the central campus will be provided special limited parking permits, valid only during their contracted portion of the academic year.

University employees from off-site locations making periodic visits to the central campus can obtain visitor passes. Those required to regularly be on campus (five or more times a month) and who choose to park in a university designated space will be required to purchase a monthly parking permit.

All university students who park in ULV designated spaces will be required to purchase student permits from the Office of Student Accounts at a cost of $12 per semester or $20 annually. Oaks Residence students with vehicles will only be eligible to obtain restricted parking permits for designated lots adjacent to the Oaks. University employees who are also enrolled in classes are not eligible to purchase student parking permits.

As mandated by state and federal ADA regulations, handicap spaces will be located within the proximity of the main buildings throughout the university campus. Individuals (students, faculty, staff and visitors) with an official disabled placard or license plates will not be required to purchase or display a university parking permit.

The City of La Verne has converted the public parking along Third Street (between B & C streets) and D Street (between Second Street & Arrow Highway) to three-hour limits. These restrictions will be in effect Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. excluding recognized holidays. This will provide space turnover within an equitable time frame (four times in a 12-hour span) to allow students, faculty and visitors access to the central campus during peak times. A number of 20-minute parking spaces will also be established to provide necessary access to primary campus locations.

To compensate for parking lost to construction associated with the Abraham Campus Center, reduced available spaces in the First Street & Second Street lots and potentially on Second Street itself, the university has converted the tennis pavilion into a temporary lot with a capacity in excess of 100 vehicles. Additional efforts are underway to expand the number of available spaces in other existing campus lots.

Parking Permit Revenues

All revenues from parking permit fees will be used to fund incentives and subsidies for alternative transportation, and to further develop university parking options.

Campus Construction

It is likely that extensive campus construction efforts in the next few years will create some challenges for both parking and campus access. Information on current and upcoming campus construction will be posted on the university Web site. Updates will include effects on parking, campus access and viable alternatives.

Employee Work Schedules

Department heads, unit managers and supervisors are asked to allow flexibility in work hours to accommodate alternative commuting of their employees, provided that such adjustments do not interfere with the operational needs of the unit. Recognizing that car and van pooling and use of public transportation can necessitate minor changes in arrival and departure times also conforms to the university's commitment to these supported options.
