Your car may already qualify. The program is not limited to just hybrid vehicles - many different types of vehicles dating back to the 2004 model year are considered low-emission.
How to know if your car qualifies?
On the EPA website, select your model year, vehicle class, and make. Please leave the "state" dropdown as all states. If your car appears in the created list, then your car qualifies for the program. If you drive an electric vehicle (EV), please read more about our EV program here.
How to get a permit if you qualify:
Complete your application at the Parking and Transportation Services office located at G-01 University Union after you have determined your car meets the standards. Applicants also will need to know the engine size of their vehicle (4cyl., 6cyl., or 8cyl) and type of transmission (automatic/manual).
The program is only open to faculty and staff who are current permit holders. The cost of the LEV permit will be the same as a normal employee parking permit. The normal $6 fee to exchange a parking permit will apply to initially enroll in the LEV program. You may also download and fill out the application to be brought into the Parking and Transportation Services office with your vehicle registration. All documents must be brought in, emailed materials will not be accepted.
