PARKING FEES

In compliance with the University of Wisconsin Board of Regents Resolutions, the UW-L Parking Utility must be self-supporting. Parking fees are established at levels which provide sufficient funds for the Utility to fulfill its responsibilities without recourse to tax dollars. Funds for the development and maintenance of parking facilities and for administration and enforcement of parking regulations are raised through sales of permits and meter charges:
