WSU begins annual online parking permit renewal

PULLMAN, Wash. – Washington State University Parking and Transportation Services will offer annual campus parking permit renewals for 2012-13 on the Web.
 
As in past years, eligible annual permit holders will be contacted via email that will direct them to the WSU Parking and Transportation website for renewal, which is expected to start on March 28. Parking patrons are encouraged to check their WSU email account on a regular basis for emails regarding parking information.
 
The permit by Web renewal process is easy and only takes a few minutes to complete.
 
Due to some changes in the parking zones, permit holders are encouraged to review the Zone Choices Map before renewing their permit. For more information on the changes, visit the WSU Parking and Transportation website at www.parking.wsu.edu.
 
Permit holders also will notice an increase in annual permit prices. In March 2011, the WSU Board of Regents approved a three year rate increase that will help provide funds for major capital projects and maintain a financially healthy parking system that can meet the future needs of a growing campus. 
 
For more information on parking rates, visit the WSU Parking and Transportation website at www.parking.wsu.edu, and click on “Approved New Rates.”
 
A valid WSU Network ID is required to renew a parking permit. Anyone who has lost or forgotten their network ID can retrieve it by calling the WSU IT Phone Desk at 509-335-HELP (4357).
Those wishing to renew permits through the Web service should ensure that their primary mailing address with the university is current. Mailing addresses can be checked through the zzusis system.
 
As in the past, the initial phase of the renewal is restricted to current eligible permit holders. Once that phase is completed, annual permits will be made available to other parking patrons.
Those who do not have access to a computer to renew or purchase a permit can do so at the WSU Parking and Transportation office.
 
For more information, contact WSU Parking and Transportation Services at 509-335-PARK (7275) or email parking@wsu.edu.
