Parking on Campus For Retirees
This document was prepared by the ISU
Annuitants
Association
(ISUAA) to provide information to members.
Those of us who attend events on
campus are thankful for our
gold emeritus/retiree parking permits which allow us to park free of
charge
(except when special event rate is in effect), in the Bone/Braden and
South
University Street pay lots on campus. The gold parking permits also
allow us
access to the surface parking lot spaces (non-reserved) in
faculty/staff (FS)
and commuter lots. The gold tags are good for two years with the
rectangular
parking tags expiring in even numbered years and those shaped like
Illinois expiring in odd numbered years. While we
earned
these privileges, we are still thankful.
If you do not have one of these
emeritus/retiree
parking permits, they are available at the Office of Parking and
Transportation,
709 North Main St. 7:30 – 4:30 M-F. In order to obtain the tag
you must present a
valid ISU (photo) Retiree ID card. Many
of us have these, but if you don’t they are available at the Redbird
Card Office,
2nd floor Bone/Braden. Hours are 9 –
5:30 M–F fall and spring
semesters and 9 -5 during the summer. Please bring a photo ID,
such as a
driver’s license, with you. The Retiree IDs may also be used at
Milner Library,
Bowling & Billiards Center, Recreation Services, ISU Golf Course
and for
other campus privileges.
When we park in the pay lots, rather
than FS lots, it
maximizes parking available in these lots for current FS, and in the
evenings
for commuter students. These people have to pay when they use the pay
lots.
When utilizing the pay lots be prepared to show your tag to the
attendant who
needs to record the tag number.
When attending an event where the
special event rate is in
effect you can either pay the $4 or park in a nearby FS lot for
free. If you
see a reserved space with a red sign you may park there after 5 pm with
your
gold tag. Reserved spaces with white signs are available only to those
with
permits for reserved spaces.
Information regarding when the special
event rate is in
effect for specific lots may be obtained by calling Parking and
Transportation
(438-8391). On occasion some FS lots are converted to special
event parking.
Thanks to Maggie Nelson at Parking and
Transportation and Robin Knapp at
Redbird Card Office for providing this information.
