PURCHASING A VIRTUAL PERMIT

Permits are purchased online at the MavPark online portal, or at the UNO Parking and Transit Services building during regular office hours. Accurate license plate information, including state and number, and vehicle information, including vehicle identification number (VIN), make, model, and color, is required to purchase a permit.

For UNO affiliated Faculty/Staff, Students, and Residents, the site requires a NETID/password.

Faculty/Staff employed at .50 FTE or higher can elect to pay for their annual permit with credit or debit card, or the payroll deduction option, when purchasing online. Part-time Faculty/Staff under .49 FTE must pay for their permit with credit or debit card online.

All student annual or semester permit purchases will be posted to MavLink for payment the following business day. Permits not paid within the MavLink billing schedules will risk late fees. A hold will also be placed on the MavPark account to stop future permit purchases until the past permit is paid.

Visitors, Contractors/Vendors and unaffiliated Residents will create a guest account to purchase a permit.

It is the responsibility of the permit holder to contact UNO Parking and Transit Services with any changes to plate or vehicle information. Registering a license plate or vehicle information inaccurately or failing to register a plate or vehicle prior to parking on campus will result in a citation.

A license plate may only be registered on one (1) account, not multiple accounts, at a time.

While multiple vehicles may be registered to the account, only two (2) vehicles can be linked to one active permit, including rental and temporary vehicles when needed. When a vehicle is no longer used, it should be removed from the account. Two (2) vehicles sharing one (1) permit cannot be parked on campus at the same time to avoid a misuse of permit citation.

Faculty/Staff, Students, and Residents may only purchase one (1) active long-term permit (annual for Faculty/Staff or Residents; annual or semester for Students).

Anyone seeking to purchase a permit must clear all outstanding citations prior to purchasing a new permit.

To exchange or upgrade a permit, submit a request at UNO Parking and Transit Services, or email unoparking@unomaha.edu. Requests may take twenty-four (24) hours to process. An email with the new permit details will be sent the next business day after processing.

RETURNED CHECK POLICY

Individuals who stop payment on checks used to pay parking fees or fines, or who write insufficient funds checks for parking fees or fines, will automatically be deemed a nuisance violator.

The permit renewal will be held. The individual will be required to pay with cash or money order to satisfy the amount of the check and any additional violation penalties or fees. The returned check fee is thirty dollars ($30).

REGISTERING A NEWLY PURCHASED VEHICLE OR RENTAL VEHICLE

Newly purchased vehicles and rental vehicles need to be registered to a current permit. Please contact UNO Parking and Transit Services at unoparking@unomaha.edu or 402.554.7275 for assistance with this. Please do not register in-transit or dealer plates. If the vehicle does not have license plates, please register the complete VIN by contacting UNO Parking and Transit Services. A VIN can only be registered until issuance of a state license plate. After receiving plates, contact UNO Parking and Transit Services to update your vehicle on your account and link it to your permit. If a vehicle is displaying plates, UNO Parking and Transit Services will not look for VINs, and a citation will be issued on a plate if not registered.

If a new vehicle is added, please ensure the vehicle is listed on the active permit on the permits page of MavPark.

PARKING PERMIT CANCELLATION POLICY

Employees are responsible for canceling their own parking assignments. It is not the responsibility of the manager or department to cancel an employee’s parking. UNO Parking and Transit Services will not cancel parking without the employee’s consent and request in writing, unless UNO Payroll provides proof of separation.

REFUNDS

Refunds will not be issued if outstanding citations or permit fees remain on MavPark or MavLink.

Faculty/Staff that seek to cancel their permit before expiration must contact unoparking@unomaha.edu. If the permit was on payroll deduction, payroll deduction will be stopped after last outstanding payment is deducted. If the permit was purchased by cash or credit, a prorated refund of each full month the permit
remains valid will be processed.

Student refunds for permits purchased on or before the first day of each semester, will be 100% of the original fee. A prorated refund will occur within the first 5 weeks of the semester it is purchased.

  • The first (1st) and second (2nd) week refund will be 100% of the original fee.
  • The third (3rd) week refund will be 75% of the original fee.
  • The fourth (4th) week refund will be 50% of the original fee.
  • The fifth (5th) week refund will be 25% of the original fee.

No Student refunds will be issued after five weeks from the start of Fall or Spring Semester.
