Parking Permits

<p>My son will be living in the Blount Living Learning Dorm and I am trying to figure out which parking permit to order, as he is taking his car to campus. Any help would be appreciated.</p>

<p>I’m trying to remember how I’ve done it in the past.</p>

<p>I think when you put in the order, you indicate that the child will be living in XXX housing, so that his permit will be good in the nearby color-coded parking lots.</p>

<p>According to [Parking</a> Services - Student Parking Registration Information](<a href=“http://bamaparking.ua.edu/pages/permit-reg.htm]Parking”>http://bamaparking.ua.edu/pages/permit-reg.htm) you select your top 3 choices of zones for a parking permit. Maps of the zones can be found at [Parking</a> Maps and Zones](<a href=“http://bamaparking.ua.edu/pages/parkingmaps.html]Parking”>http://bamaparking.ua.edu/pages/parkingmaps.html) .</p>

<p>^^^ I think that’s for commuters…</p>

<p>For residents…</p>

<p>*If you are assigned to the Housing and Residential Communities for fall 2010, you will be assigned the appropriate housing permit regardless of your permit selection. …</p>

<p>You will be assigned the appropriate RESIDENT permit when your information is updated from HRC.*</p>

<p>^^^Oops! The zone selection is for commuters, but the residential parking maps may prove useful to some people.</p>

<p>If he’s in Blount, he’s probably getting yellow, which is what I’ve got. It’s access to the Ferg parking deck, Ridgecrest parking deck, the parking lot right next to Paty and Blount, and the parking strips in front of and behind Somerville and Mallet.</p>

<p>Thanks that a great help.</p>

<p>I cant figure out how to apply for the permit for my son, how do you do it?</p>
