2024-25 Student Handbook

Parking Citations

Fines range from $25 to $200 based upon the violation. A citation for any type of parking violation must be paid or appealed within fourteen (14) calendar days after the issuance of the citation. Failure to pay or appeal a citation within fourteen (14) calendar days after issuance of the citation constitutes a separate violation of these rules. If a fine is not paid or appealed within fourteen (14) calendar days after the issuance of the citation, a ten dollar ($10.00) late charge will be added.

Payments for all parking violations must be made to the Security Office located in the Justice Center or the Business Office located in Colonial Hall between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.

If more than five (5) citations are issued to a student in one semester, the student will be notified that his/her vehicle is subject to towing or immobilization. If, after this notification, the student receives another citation during the same semester, the student’s vehicle will be subject to towing or immobilization for that citation and subsequent citations for the remainder of that semester, even if the previous citations have been satisfied by paying the fines or other penalties.

Registrants/owners/operators of vehicles that are towed or immobilized pursuant to these rules will be required to pay a fee of forty dollars ($40.00) as a condition of the vehicle being released or mobilized. Vehicles that are towed/booted/immobilized under these traffic and parking regulations will be released only upon the owner or registrant of the vehicle providing identification and paying to UTS all previously unpaid parking fines, penalties, and towing/booting charges levied by UTS. The release of a vehicle impounded in an impound lot not owned or operated by UTS also may be subject to payment of additional fees or charges levied by the owner/operator of the impound lot.

Any student who receives $100.00 or more in traffic and/or parking violations on UTS property during any semester or academic term may be subject to disciplinary action in accordance with applicable rules. UTS students and employees with unpaid parking fines or charges will not be allowed to register a vehicle, renew their UTS parking permits, or purchase UTS parking permits until all fines and penalties are paid.
