Disabled Students, Faculty & Staff
If you are a student, faculty or staff member and park on campus using a state-issued Disabled Persons Parking Placard, you are required to purchase a UF Disabled persons parking decal. You must also display BOTH (State given as well as University given) Disabled Placards on your vehicle to avoid receiving parking citations. If you have a mobility-related disability, you may be eligible for special parking accommodations by purchasing a UF Disabled Persons Decal. |
| Application |
|---|
| In order to qualify to purchase a Disabled Persons Decal, all applicants must bring the following documents to Transportation and Parking Services for review: 1. Copy of driver's license 2. Copy of state-issued Disabled Persons Parking Placard 3. Copy of state-issued registration sheet for Disabled Person Parking Placard This review is required of all staff and students desiring access to disabled parking in all campus lots and garages-including those with a reserved disabled parking space. The application process is a one-time event with automatic approval for decal renewal in subsequent years. If you have any questions, please call (352) 392-2241. |
| Cost |
| The annual cost for the UF Disabled Persons Parking Decal is $282.00 for faculty and staff and $134.00 for students. (Faculty and staff members eligible for a reserved space who choose to locate that space in a Commuter parking lot will pay the $132.00 Staff Commuter rate.) |
| Parking Accomodations |
| The UF Disabled Persons Decal grants registered students, faculty and staff the opportunity to park in any disabled, decal-restricted or metered space on campus. The permit will not be honored in gated parking areas, carpool spaces, reserved spaces and no parking areas. Qualifying full-time faculty and staff may request a reserved parking space close to their primary workplace (please inform Transportation and Parking Services during the review process). |
| Noncompliance |
| UF faculty, staff and students choosing not to purchase the UF Disabled Persons decal are reminded that the state-issued placard will be valid only in metered spaces and marked disabled spaces located on streets. The placard alone without the required accompanying UF decal will not be acceptable in any UF parking lot or garage-including the disabled spaces within those lots and garages. Violators are subject to ticketing. The UF Disabled Persons Decal is intended to control the illegal use of state-issued Disabled Persons Parking Placards on campus and ensure maximum access to parking accommodations for the disabled. We apologize for any inconvenience you may experience and we thank you for your cooperation.
