Permit rates for 2013-2014 are set and have been approved by the UNC Charlotte Board of Trustees. First, the unpleasant news: permit prices will rise again this year, by about 8%
One bright spot for non-resident students with compressed Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday schedules: new Commuter permit options have been added in response to their requests. Class schedules have created enough of these students to justify offering Monday/Wednesday and Tuesday/Thursday permits for purchase by the semester.
What’s new for 2013-2014
M/W and T/Th one semester permits
As mentioned above, these permits are an economical option for Commuters who are only required to be on campus for Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday classes. They are valid for one semester, only on the days specified. On all other weekdays, these Commuters must pay to park in Visitor Decks or at meters, even after 6:00 pm.
South Village Deck
Freshmen assigned to highrise residence halls will no longer have to park across campus in North Deck. The new South Village Deck will have over 1,200 spaces. While construction of the South Village Dining Hall will be ongoing for another year, insufficient parking will no longer be a problem.
South Village Deck highlights:
- Stained white ceiling and bright induction lighting for safety and visibility;
- RFID controlled gated access
- Convenient Visitor parking in the deck with “pay-on-foot” station.
What remains the same
- All parking permits are hang tags with an encoded Radio Frequency ID (RFID) chip to open appropriate gates for your permit type
- Hang tags must be hung from the rear view mirror or displayed on the windshield on the driver’s side by using a PaTS approved display pouch
- Permit types have specific access
- Faculty and Staff who have purchased premium lot access will have the RFID on their hang tag programmed to open gates.
- RFIDs allow Commuter students to access CRI deck. Resident Students will be allowed to park in the CRI deck after 6:00 PM.
Multi-vehicle registration
To register more than one vehicle to a hang tag, the cost is $15, unchanged from last year. You may register as many vehicles as you own to any one tag. (As defined in the campus parking ordinances “No faculty, staff member, or student may register a vehicle not owned by that individual, his/her spouse, a parent or guardian, or assigned to the individual by his/her employer.”)
Discount remote parking options in Lot 6A and Lot 27
Lower-priced permit options for Faculty/Staff and Commuters will continue to include:
- Lot 6A (at the corner of Cameron and John Kirk, served by the Rt. 50 Red Line shuttle)
- Lot 27 (on Toby Creek, near Harris Alumni Center), a walk-in lot
Discount remote parking at Starlight Cinema (North Tryon Street) may not be offered for 2013-2014. However, Parking and Transportation Services is working with the Charlotte Area Transit System and management companies from surrounding apartment complexes in an effort to make this option possible. A final decision will be made and announced on the PaTS website before 2013-2014 permits become available for online purchase.
Carpools
Carpools need to be arranged with Parking and Transportation Services so that multi-vehicle hang tag listing all the carpool vehicles and their owners may be registered.
Each carpool will be allowed up to 10 free daily temporary permits per academic year. That way, on days when you need to drive your own car and not be a part of the carpool, you may legally park. Daily temporary passes can be picked up at the PaTS office in advance of the day needed, or you may park in front of the PaTS Office for long enough to procure that day’s permit.
FAQs about permit prices
Why does it cost so much to park my car on campus?
Campus parking has to be self-supporting. This is because:
- State funding is not used to pay for parking facilities;
- Tuition dollars do not supplement parking;
- Collected citation fines cannot supplement construction or maintenance of parking facilities.
PaTS Director Gary Caton explains, “Replacing surface parking with parking decks increases cost of operation and debt service. The sale of parking permits and Visitor parking fees are the only source of revenue, because, contrary to popular belief, citation fines do not generate income for Parking and Transportation Services.”
Business Services (of which PaTS is a division) has endeavored to keep prices as low as the financial model will allow, while adding new decks and parking control technology that will benefit campus now and in the future. The principal factor that determines permit pricing is the cost of new deck construction and replacing surface lots with decks. It’s expensive to design, construct and maintain new parking decks needed to accommodate enrollment and demand. When surface lots must make way for new buildings and residence halls, those spaces must be replaced with decks.
What do Permit fees pay for?
Almost all of it goes toward design and construction new parking decks, maintenance and debt service (paying back construction bonds) of existing decks/lots, with a small percentage going toward traffic control staffing and support of the CATS Campus Shuttle.
What about fines collected from citations? Where does that money go?
There are State statutes governing this (GS 115C-457.1-3 - page 305) determining that civil fines (as well as penalties and forfeitures) less the cost of collection have to be remitted to the State; then the State allocates the money to local public schools.
The cost of collection is capped at 20%, regardless of what it may actually cost the agency or municipality to collect the fines. Enforcement and collection costs the University more than the amount we’re permitted to keep. Business Services remits the 80% of all fines collected to the Office of State Budget and Management (OSBM) monthly.
PaTS and the University do not gain financial benefit from citation fines. In fact,
- it costs us money to enforce permits and deter illegal parking;
- expect to see more lots and decks being controlled by gate systems; they require less citation enforcement;
- more gates and less citation enforcement benefits campus as whole because automated parking control lowers cost.
One last thought from the director of Parking and Transportation Services
“I fully understand the financial impact and feelings of concern that arise when parking rates increase," says Caton. "But here’s the math: As enrollment has risen, parking has had to grow from 10,499 spaces and six parking decks in 2006 to 14,694 spaces with ten parking decks by July 2013. That’s 40% more parking. The corollary is that permit rates have had to increase as well. During the same period the price rose from $265 to $450 which is 42%; almost the same amount.
“I know that this explanation does little to lessen the displeasure that is inevitably felt when we’re told permits will cost us even more, but I do hope it offers some understanding of ‘why’.”

How campus dining is changing on college campuses nationally, and here at UNC Charlotte
In the early days of the Residence Dining Hall (RDH), students slid trays down a cafeteria line where food that had been cooked in the “back of the house” was plopped onto a Melamine plate from an ice cream scoop. Ketchup went a long way to rehydrate a square of meatloaf and Lance crackers from the vending machine were the only available alternative. There was no such thing as DB to spend at retail brands located elsewhere on campus. There were no retail brands. There was no elsewhere to go.
Sounds like one of those “Back-in-my-day-we-walked-a-mile-in-the-snow-uphill-both-ways-to-get-to-school-and-we-were-grateful-for-it” stories, doesn’t it? That’s because nowadays, college and university dining services feature within their model food cooked-to-order, eco-friendly options, International flavors and favorite national brands. Today, providing food for thousands of students daily is far less about filling stomachs and much more about recognizing individual tastes and preferences while providing optimal nutrition, variety and convenience.
A recent blog post on Houston Press notes the top five food trends that are changing the campus dining paradigm, all of which are notable at UNC Charlotte.
Trend #5: Variety of Cuisines
Students now want and expect multiple flavor profiles, minimally including those associated with Italian, Mexican and Asian foods. In addition to the ethnic-style venues in Cone Center, Student Union and Prospector, Crown Commons dining hall has an International station that features a daily entrées from those and other parts of the world such as India and the Mediterranean.
Trend #4: Trayless dining
Going trayless not only benefits the environment, it cuts down on uneaten food going into the garbage. Crown Commons and RDH are “all-you-care-to-eat” dining halls and students are free to go back for seconds or thirds. But keeping each trip down to what can be carried in two hands prevents the waste that inevitably happens when “the eyes are bigger than the stomach.”
Trend #3: Posting Calories
UNC Charlotte’s food service partner, Chartwells, posts nutrition facts for menu items online and at the dining halls. In addition, specific, healthy options are served in RDH and Crown Commons at every meal. Chartwells’ BalancedU program highlights offerings as ‘balanced’, ‘sustainable’, vegan, vegetarian and/or made-without-gluten items through the use of easily identifiable icons. In addition, Chartwells has added a dietetic intern to assist with educating students about the healthier food options available to them.
Trend #2: Chefs cooking food to order
First take note of the word, “Chef.” UNC Charlotte is proud to have 10 of them on staff, several award-winning, and all with culinary degrees. Chef Roger Lademann, Director of Operations says, “Creating a great culinary team for a college campus is important. No two students are the same, which means each has unique college dining expectations. Chartwells allows the chefs to create customized meals and work with great equipment in state-of-the-art facilities. Crown Commons has ‘action stations’ where diners can watch our culinary team prepare and cook their food directly in front of them.”
At Crown Commons, special-request pizzas slide off wooden paddles into an open, gas-fired oven; students specify every component for a sandwich, from bread to the condiments; nearby there’s an enormous salad bar with “fire and ice” stations where grilled chicken, steak or tofu can be added as a sizzling protein topper. The new South Village Dining Hall (scheduled to open Fall 2014) will have all this too, plus an in-full-view bake shop.
Trend #1: Food Trucks
The food trend that’s sweeping big cities is becoming hugely popular on college campuses. This year, UNC Charlotte got ‘a taste of what’s good off a truck’ thanks to The Herban Legend Mobile Café. This local gourmet food truck features American and International street food prepared by Chef Brian Seeley, whose website states, “We use all fresh ingredients which we source from local growers and purveyors whenever possible.”
Sticks and Cones Ice Cream trucks also comes to campus when the weather is nice. (OK, maybe their fare isn’t on the top 7/8 of the nutrition pyramid, but students do enjoy and usually deserve an occasional treat).
Other facts about UNC Charlotte Dining
- The menu selection in the dining halls includes sustainable purchasing as part of an ‘eat local’ campaign.
- Our chefs prepare meals using healthy cooking techniques.
- Monthly, each dining hall has themed meals, dining events and/or activities designed to prevent menu fatigue and build community.
- Chartwells is a leader in foodservice management and hospitality known for their award winning ‘YouFirst’ guest service in college and university dining environments across the United States.
- Chartwells manages all UNC Charlotte dining locations including the dining halls, retail outlets, catering and concessions. The company is committed to practices that honor ethical values, embrace diversity and inclusion, support of the environment and value of communities through demonstrated leadership, professionalism and innovation.
- Chartwells staff, including the campus chefs, can be reached via email or phone with any questions or comments relating to the dining services. The staff directory for the managers and chefs can be found at www.dineoncampus.com/unccharlotte.
- ServeSafe is the National Restaurant Association accredited program for food safety. The UNC Charlotte dining team currently has 45 ServeSafe managers among the two dining halls and 18 retail locations.
- UNC Charlotte dining locations are regularly visited and inspected by the Mecklenburg County Health Department. In 2012, RDH and Crown Commons both maintained an average rating of 96 out of 100.
- The two campus dining halls serve over 4,000 students each day. Crown Commons, located in the Student Union, is the newer and busier of the two locations.
- In all the dining locations on campus there are over 14,000 daily transactions.
Even good old RDH has seen many service enhancements since it opened over 40 years ago. But the facility’s set-up, with one large kitchen in the back, cannot possibly accommodate a contemporary university dining model. The new South Village dining hall however, will! Its multiple dining stations with food prepared right in front, bakery, diner, take out section, and expansive convenience store, promises to be a dining spot fit for our dynamic, modern campus. It will even have fireplaces!

REPROS introduces Ink Spot, a “print from anywhere” enhancement to UNC Charlotte’s pay-for-print service. Instead of only having to print from a computer in the library or lab, students can send documents to print remotely, through any Internet-connected PC, tablet or smart phone. Faculty and staff may also enjoy the convenience of making personal prints from many points on campus.
Sending documents from a PC or laptop is simple via Web upload; smart phones and tablets use the PrinterOn app, available for IOS, Android and Blackberry. The consumer then selects “UNC Charlotte” and specifies black and white or color printing. Uploaded documents reside in a print queue (for up to three days) until released at any Ink Spot print station.
Complete instructions and download links for apps.
There are currently 15 Ink Spot-enabled locations placed for convenience in Atkins Library, Fretwell, Student Union, EPIC, and Center City, identified by an Ink Spot logo sticker. Ink Spot device location list. Ink Spot printing only works with the 49er Account; no departmental copy cards, guest cards, or copy codes.
REPROS is the campus copy center located in Prospector. It is part of the Reprographics program managed by Auxiliary Services, which includes pay-for-print and convenience copiers on a campus. Technology partner is Ricoh Managed Services who made Ink Spot available to campus with technical assistance from UNC Charlotte ITS. Rick Torres, Auxiliary Services Program Manager for Vending, Reprographics and ATMs said, “We’re pleased to add Ink Spot remote printing to our services. It’s something students have needed and wanted for awhile.” He added that as use of the program grows, more Ink Spot-enabled devices will be added around campus.
