New Permit Options

Parking and Transportation Services is pleased to announce that we are now selling packs of 20 one-day parking permits for $20 to be used in Black (Commuter) signed lots.  These permits have scratch-off dates, months and years and are valid for one day at a time through 12/13.

These may be convenient for:

• Regular visitors who don’t want to get a permit each visit,
• Those who have regular meetings on campus,
• The commuter student who visits campus on rare occasions,
• The commuter student who takes classes just one semester, etc.

 20/20 permits are available at 523 DTAV Community Center
(directly across from the UMaine Credit Union on Rangeley Rd.)

 Call 581-4047 if you have any questions.
