Faculty/Staff
FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES
Most faculty and staff members purchase a UMKC parking permit while employed with the University, although an employee may choose to park and pay at the meters.
Cost
$46 per month or
$552 for the academic year
Employees of the University can choose to pay up front for their permit or have $46 per month deducted from their paycheck. According to the commuter benefit program, an employee can choose to have their parking deducted before taxes. Employees who pay for their parking up front cannot take advantage of the pre-taxed benefit.
PART-TIME EMPLOYEES
Employees who are part-time and work two days or fewer per week may purchase a parking permit on a prorated basis. The permit issued to employees is validated for the specific days of the week the employee will be on campus.
Cost
$103 per semester
To qualify for a prorated permit, the employee’s department head or supervisor must notify Parking Operations in writing of the pertinent facts of employment.
Apply
Applications for employee parking permits are available in the Parking Operations office. Once an employee has signed up for parking, they will be issued a permit that will remain valid until the expiration date listed on the permit. Permits are automatically renewed and a new permit is sent via campus mail to the employee upon expiration of a parking permit.
Parking is not prorated for portions of the month. No refunds for parking permits will be issued.
Valid Parking Areas
Vehicles displaying a valid UMKC employee-parking permit can be parked in all permit areas on campus.
The UMKC faculty/staff parking permit is valid on any vehicle the employee drives but is not transferable to another individual.
Restricted Parking Areas
The UMKC faculty/staff permit is not valid on any other University of Missouri campuses.
Violations
Employees are subject to all UMKC traffic and parking regulations. In the event an employee receives a parking violation, they are subject to pay or appeal the fee in ten (10) days. If the violation is not paid in a timely manner or dismissed upon appeal, the fee may be deducted from employee pay by payroll deduction.
Cancellation
If an employee wants to stop their payroll deduction for parking they must fill out a stop payroll deduction form and return their UMKC parking permit to the Parking Operations office. If an employee fails to return the parking permit, their payroll deduction will continue until the expiration date of the permit issued to them.
If an employee leaves the University and the payroll deduction for their parking ceases, the permit issued to them will be revoked and any vehicle displaying such permit will be subject to immobilization or towing. The vehicle will also be issued a $65 parking violation for attempting to circumvent the UMKC Traffic and Parking Regulations.
