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.
