Dear Colleagues:

I'm wondering how many UTC community members buy more than one parking
permit, e.g. one for the dorm lot and one for one or more classroom
building lots, etc. If we limited the purchase of permits to one per
customer, perhaps this policy would help alleviate the parking crunch.

A couple of years ago, the ECHO ran a column called Grump Girl.  Students
could write in and complain about campus problems.  A female student wrote
in to complain that ongoing construction on a street contiguous to campus
was delaying her as she drove each day from her dorm to her classroom
building a couple of blocks away!  Grump Girl replied, "Mommy and Daddy
must love you [to buy her parking permits for more than one lot]!"

I'm wondering how much of this kind of thing actually goes on and why
Parking Services couldn't institute a policy of one permit per person.  Our
campus is relatively small.  Walking two or three or four blocks to class
shouldn't be too much to ask of students (or faculty, for that matter).
Disabled persons, of course, will be able to park in such designated spaces
