Retiree Parking Program

Retiree Parking Program 

The University is grateful for the contributions of UC Davis retirees and realizes the value of the Retiree Parking Program in support of these continued efforts. The campus will continue to fund retiree parking through the fiscal year ending June 2023.

Current RT Permits Extended until October 31, 2021 - If you are currently an RT permit holder, your current hangtag will be accepted in A and C lots on the UC Davis campus, and in B lots at the Sacramento campus until October 31, 2021. Please continue to use your hangtag and do not throw it away! Our campus has decided to delay the usage of ParkMobile until the UCDMC Parking Office has their ParkMobile system working as well to ensure a cohesive transition on both campuses for our retirees. 
  • PLEASE NOTE: In light of current campus budget challenges, the Retiree Parking Program will continue to be evaluated in future years and any program changes or updates will be communicated to retirees.

Who is eligible for the Retiree Parking Program?

  • Former UC Davis faculty and staff, identified by the campus Benefits Office as officially retired
  • Retirees from other UC campuses who join either the UC Davis Retirees' Association or UC Davis Emeriti Association

Those eligible for the program can register to receive the retiree affiliate rate via the ParkMobile app. The RT parking benefit provides access to the "A" and “C” zones at the UC Davis campus. Our office will continue to honor RT permits (expiring 6/30/21) through 10/31/21.

Once UCDMC has their ParkMobile system up and running you will be able to receive the retiree affiliate rate in their B and C zones. 

Retiree parking eligibility requirements

There are established policies and eligibility requirements to ensure the integrity of the retiree permit program and to minimize program costs.

  • If retired faculty or staff members return to attend school or to work for the University with an employment appointment (regardless of the percentage) and/or are being compensated for their services, they are no longer eligible for the complimentary retiree parking benefit and must contact our office immediately.
  • RT affiliate rate benefit  is not transferable and may be used only by the individual to whom the benefit is issued.
  • Future parking privileges may be revoked as a result of inappropriate use.
    DISCLAIMER: The retiree affiliate rate does not provide access to L parking zones, red zones, disabled spaces (unless your DMV issued placard is displayed), reserved or carpool spaces (until after the posted time), Exempt, "H", "D", or "TH" areas, special permit, loading/time zones beyond the posted time, or other restricted spaces. Regulations for these areas are enforced 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays. Payment is required to utilize the electric vehicles charging station on campus. For more information you may contact the TS office.
