A Vendor permit allows curbside stopping when you make a delivery
or service call on campus. Curbside stopping is valid in:
- service/restricted (white-curbed) spaces
- green-curbed spaces
- 20 minute (yellow-curbed) loading zones
You may also park in lots or spaces marked for vendors, students, or staff.
A vendor permit does not allow you to park in red-zoned or otherwise restricted
spaces, reserved spaces, spaces marked for faculty, unpaid metered spaces, or coastal
access spaces. The permit likewise does not allow you to obstruct a walkway.
