Faculty & Staff

Permit Purchase

Faculty/staff requiring annual parking:

*Permits from May 1^st to April 30^th*

Annual permits are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Not all locations are available online. If you need a specific location that is not listed, contact Transportation Services for availability. Payment options are monthly payroll deductions (full-time appointed faculty/staff only) or the full annual amount paid in advance via credit card charge (for everyone). If your department is paying for your permit, please contact Transportation Service’s to make the necessary arrangements.

Permits will only be allowed to have one active license plate. However, you will have access to your account to switch plates. There is a maximum of 7 changes per last 7 days (when changing plates, it must be done in advance of your arrival on campus). It will be the permit holder’s responsibility to ensure the plate registered to their account matches the vehicle they are parking on campus. Any incorrect submissions may result in enforcement action.

To purchase an annual parking permit, see below.

For staff who require temporary parking:

IMPORTANT! As we near the upcoming academic year and day-to-day operations on St. George campus begin to normalize, the need for parking is beginning to increase. As a result, it is now necessary for faculty and staff to login when purchasing temporary permits. With increased parking demand, and reduced parking inventory as a result of the Landmark Project on main campus, our employee verification process ensures the University of Toronto community will continue to have priority access to parking permits as we move into what is sure to be a hectic time for all.

The only method of payment available for temporary permits is via credit card. Permits will only be allowed to have one active license plate. It will be the permit holder’s responsibility to ensure the plate registered to their account matches the vehicle they are parking on campus. Any incorrect submissions may result in enforcement action. These types of permits are only available to full-time appointed faculty and staff. Proof of status may be required.

Eligibility

Applicants must prove that they are eligible for parking permits. Transportation Services reserves the right to deny a permit in cases where it is assessed that an applicant does not meet required criteria.

St. George campus staff parking permits are currently issued only to University of Toronto regular, appointed faculty, librarians and administrative staff.

Permits are available for purchase on-line only. Applicants must have valid UTORID credentials in order to purchase.  Only one permit can be issued to each permit holder. Parking permits are normally effective for 12 months: from May 1 to April 30 of the following year.

There are two types of staff permits – reserved and lot reserved. Reserved permit holders have the exclusive use of a designated space during normal working hours. For customers who move regularly on and off campus during the working hours, this is the most appropriate permit. Lot reserved permit holders park in a specific area, or lot, during normal working hours, but not in a specific space on the lot. However, lot reserved permit holders who must frequently move on and off campus during the day might occasionally find space unavailable.

For further information please refer to the Parking Regulations.

**Only one (1) vehicle will be registered and active on your account. No physical permit will be issued. As a result, it is imperative that your vehicle information is accurate.  Any inaccuracies can result in a PVN (ticket) being issued.

Cancellation Policy

Permit holders may submit a cancellation request (by downloading the fillable cancellation form, electronically completing and signing it) for their permit at any time. Cancellation requests must be received by the Transportation Services office on or before the last business day of the month, during our normal business hours, Monday to Friday, 8:15 am to 5:00 pm (summer hours in July and August are Monday to Friday, 8:15 am to 4:30 pm), so there will be no charge for the following month. An administrative fee will be applied for all (non-annual) temporary permits.

Meaning, if the last day(s) of the month falls on a weekend or statutory/University holiday (i.e. typical days our office is closed) and the form is submitted on such a date, the submission will be considered past due and parking fees will still apply for the following month.

Once the permit is expired in our database, parking on University property will require payment at a Pay-by-Plate machine or use of the pay-by-phone app, ParkedIn. There is no area, time or circumstances that allow free parking on campus. Proof of purchase must always be verifiable by Parking Control Officers. Failure to do so will result in a Parking Violation Notice (also known as a ticket) being issued to such unauthorized vehicles.

A telephone call or email to the Transportation Services office, signaling your intent to cancel your permit, is not sufficient to effect a cancellation. Payroll deductions will not be stopped, or refunds of prepayments authorized, until a Transportation Services cancellation form has been sent to transportation@utoronto.ca.

A permit must be cancelled when university employment is terminated. A break in service extending beyond one month (other than for an approved leave-of-absence) is considered to be a termination.
