- Park in lots identified by the permit type on your permit confirmation.
- Customer parking – identified as retail, patient, visitor or guest parking – is not included as approved parking for any parking permit type.
- UToledo parking permits cannot be used to park in metered spaces. Metered spaces require a separate payment and are enforced 24/7.
- Parking spaces identified as “Reserved” in any way shape or form, are not open to general parking at any time.
- Vehicles parked in retail, patient, visitor, guest and reserved parking areas are subject to a fine.
- The parking appeal process does not apply to vehicles parked in any of the above areas or unregistered vehicles parked on campus.
Scanning license plates is how we verify that the vehicle has a permit and is parking where permitted. If we can’t scan the plate, we can’t enforce compliance.
Cars without front license plates must ensure their rear license plate is easily visible and accessible to parking enforcement. If your vehicle does not have a front license plate, please do not pull through a space, back into a parking space, or otherwise park in a manner that obstructs the view of your license plate from parking enforcement.
