Parking Operations is a self-sustaining operation that receives no funding from tuition or the State of Illinois. Revenue is generated from the fees collected through parking hang tag sales, parking violations, event parking, and meter/pay station receipts. All revenue generated goes into the operation and maintenance of the parking infrastructure. All matters related to parking, including parking hang tag fees, parking signs, and the enforcement of parking regulations are handled within this department.
