Accessible Parking

A UMKC accessible parking permit, along with a state-issued disabled plate or placard, allows an individual to park their vehicle in designated accessible spaces in faculty/staff and student permit areas.

Visitors

Cost

  • Meter fees are currently $1.25 per hour.
  • Visitor one-day hangtags, $7 each, can be purchased online or in the Parking Operations Office, Administrative Center, 5115 Oak St., Room 221, Kansas City, MO 64112.

Metered areas are indicated in yellow on the campus maps.

Valid Parking Areas

There are several designated accessible metered parking spaces. Individuals must pay the hourly meter fee and display a state-issued disabled plate or placard.

Visitor one-day hangtags ($7 per tag) plus the display of a state-issued disabled plate or placard can be used for parking in faculty/staff and student permit areas or in designated accessible spaces.

Restricted Parking Areas

Accessible spaces in any of the retail areas for the Colonial Shops or Oak Place are restricted for the use of patrons of these retail shops only.

 

Students

Student permits for Summer 2024 will be available for purchase starting May 6th, 2024.

Students may be issued a UMKC Accessible permit one of two ways:

  1. Submitting a physician's statement of need
  2. Submitting proof of ownership of a disabled license plate or placard

Statement of Need

A physician's statement of need must include 1) the need for accessible parking and 2) the time period the accommodation is needed. This permit, when used by itself, allows individuals to park in faculty/staff and student permit areas, but not in specially designated handicap-accessible spaces.

Proof of ownership of a disabled plate or placard

A UMKC accessible permit and a state-issued plate or placard must be displayed in order for an individual to park in any of the designated accessible permit spaces on the campus. A copy of the paid receipt or proof that the state-issued plate or placard belongs to the applicant is required for any vehicle parking in designated accessible spaces on the UMKC campus and must be registered with the Parking Operations office. Individuals who require accessible parking should contact the Parking Operations office.
