USE OF PARKING PERMITS - WHAT TO KNOW
THE FINE PRINT: Users of a University-issued Parking Permit acknowledge responsibility to operate
and park a vehicle on Campus in accordance with Stony Brook University's Parking Rules and Regulations. At all times, the University retains ownership of any issued Parking Permit, and
ownership is NOT transferable. Parking Permits not in use must be returned to the
University.
HOW TO DISPLAY YOUR PERMIT: When parking on campus, users must display the Permit by hanging it from the rearview
mirror support, facing outwards. The Parking Permit is not to be defaced or altered
in any manner.
IF YOU LOSE YOUR PERMIT: Report lost or stolen Permits immediately. There is a small replacement fee for
lost, stolen, or discarded Permits. Resale or unauthorized use of your issued Parking Permit is prohibited. Possession or use of a lost or stolen Permit may result
in criminal prosecution.
Special Service permits are intended for personal vehicles that carry occupants who need access to buildings to accomplish building related tasks such as service vehicles (maintenance, construction, telecom, food service and building managers), emergency response vehicles (Fire Marshals, Police, and Emergency Repair), and employees who need access to multiple loading docks daily for stays longer than 15 minutes.
There are two types of Special Services permits.
SHORT TERM: You meet the criteria above and require a permit for 30 days or less.
