Approximately 300 D spaces were lost in 2010 with the construction of the Business Leadership Building and Highland Street Garage. 104 additional D spaces will be lost in the next six weeks.

UNT will could lose approximately 1,000+ additional spaces from inventory in the next 18months

The changing campus footprint necessitates review and reallocation of parking inventory for equitable management and to maximize this limited resource.

The Changing Face of Campus

Page 6: Parking & Transportation Services

1. Highland St. will close from Ave. C to Welch for water line repairs. Parking will be removed and

not returned.2. Fleet of 18 new,

larger shuttle buses will be arriving to ourcampus

Two immediate events compounding the need to make changes to the parking operation:

Page 7: Parking & Transportation Services

1. Highland Street Repairs84 D’s 17 Visitor5 Disability 22 Meters5 Service 4 CDL1 15 minute/unloading

Total Losses: 138

Page 8: Parking & Transportation Services

Lot 24Resident parking will be removed from Lot

24 This row of parking will be zoned:1. Visitor2. Disability3. A spaces will be added to accommodate

changes from other areas of campus4. Resident parking can easily shift to Lots

27 and 7.

Lot 24

Page 10: Parking & Transportation Services

2. Champion Buses begin arriving in May 2012a. The buses are longer, wider and taller

than the buses they are replacing b. Routes must be adjusted to

accommodate the decreased maneuverability

c. All routes utilizing Highland St. must change

d. 20 D spaces on Mulberry (South side only), between Ave. D and Ave. C must be removed

Goal: Maximize Resources/Improve Customer Service

Objective: Consolidate, group and reduce reserved “A” parking spaces to maximize resources and improve customer service

We can manage our parking inventory much better than we do now!

Page 13: Parking & Transportation Services

Why?

Total Number F/S Members3,549

Total Number F/S D&A Spaces2,525Total Number F/S D’s

1,829Total Number F/S A’s

6962,853 Employees are left sharing1,829 D parking spaces

28% of our Parking is allotted to 20% of our F/S72% of our Parking is allotted to 80% of our F/S

So………

Reserved, single occupant designation isthe most inefficient use of parking inventory.

Page 14: Parking & Transportation Services

We MUST replace/increase D parking

We MUST reduce the total number of single occupant A

spaces

Page 15: Parking & Transportation Services

Current A space permit holders will be accommodated in a reserved lot/area

Permits, initially, will not be oversold. Occupancy rates taken during peak demand will determine if additional permits can be issued…

If a minimum of 10 spaces are available at 8:30, 9:30, 10:30, etc. five additional permits can be offered. Then the process begins again until the overall occupancy rate for the lot is 85 to 90%

Page 16: Parking & Transportation Services

a. “A” spaces in these three lots will be combined into lot 4 – Permits will not be space specific

b. “D” spaces will be added to 5 and 26c. Health and Career Services spaces will

remain in lot 5d. Visitor spaces will remain in lot 26e. Visitor spaces in lot 4 will be moved to

Chestnut Street

Pilot program for lots 4, 5 and 26

Lot 4 Lot 26

Lot 5

Page 18: Parking & Transportation Services

D Spaces: 271 A Spaces: 130Number of Patient/Career Center Spaces, Disability Spaces and Visitor Spaces will not change. Visitor spaces in Lot 4 will be relocated to the Ave. D.

Current Configuration:

Proposed Configuration withCustomer Service Improvements:

Visitor spaces will be visible from the information booth

Visitors are much less likely to inadvertently park in anA space for a $125 parking fine.

D Spaces: 283 A Spaces: 118

Page 19: Parking & Transportation Services

Mixed use lots are confusing, frustrating and a great source for customer service issues. i.e. Clients to Career Services miss the parking set aside for them and park in a reserved space. That citation is $125. In addition to frustrating the individual who parked improperly, you have a reserved permit holder who has no place to park.

This is a practice PTS would like to avoid whenever possible.

We can provide better Customer Service.

Lot 6 Finally Reverts back to Lot 8

Lot 8/9 will become Lot 9 and will be zoned for D parking. Four Hall Director spaces will not be affected.

Net gain of D parking spaces: 65

Current A space holders will be accommodated in Lot 8 (Lot 6),Lot 4 or Lot 24. Unsold spaces are removed.

Page 21: Parking & Transportation Services

Lot 8

Lot 9

This change will also help alleviate concerns regarding A permit holders parking in D spaces

Page 22: Parking & Transportation Services

Lot 50A spaces in Lot 50 will be consolidated andRenumbered with the unsold spaces being removed.All current A permit holders will be accommodated.

Three spaces in this lot will be the site of 2 EV Charging Stations

Net gain of D Spaces is 50!

Page 23: Parking & Transportation Services

Total number of D spaces gained: 23(Much better than losing 104)

Current A permit holders will be accommodatedprior to any additional A permits being sold

D permit holders will not be the sole groupto absorb parking losses

Parking distribution will be more equitable

Parking Resources will be more efficiently utilized

Total number of A spaces eliminated 108
