How is money collected for parking permits and parking citations spent?
All persons who park or let stand a vehicle on campus must immediately obtain and display a valid permit. When all students and employees who park on campus purchase and display a permit, everyone is paying their “fair share” toward the provision of parking services. Parking Services operating expenditures are not supplemented with any State money allocated for Education and General expenses of the university. The primary source of funds for Parking Services comes from parking permit sales and the collection of parking citation penalties. The revenue is returned to campus users in the provision of the following services: • The construction and maintenance of parking facilities. Recurring maintenance costs include landscaping, lawn mowing and tree pruning, lighting repairs, litter removal, sign replacement, paint striping and pavement surface maintenance. • To supplement operating and capital equipment funding for Clemson Area Transit. • To reimburse the Police Department for costs asso
