How do the departments/offices pay for guest passes?
An internal transfer voucher will be created and submitted based on the FOAP provided when the account was established.
Why am I receiving e-citations for vehicles that are not mine?
When the department/office claims the guest pass on behalf of the visitor, the visitor will be temporarily added under the faculty/staff member’s account. If the visitor receives a citation the faculty/staff member will receive an e-mail as the guest pass was claimed under their account on behalf of the visitor.
Parking Services advises departments and offices to allow the visitor to claim the guests passes to avoid future account confusion.
