The parties recognize that while limited parking resources on campus must be shared by varied constituencies including students, staff and faculty, the University has traditionally provided GAs with more extensive parking privileges than provided to other students as well as access to some employee lots. The University shall continue to provide such enhanced parking to GAs pursuant to this agreement. The University will allow GAs to purchase a parking permit which allows access to commuter and Area 2 parking lots. The parties recognize that the specific access arrangements and areas covered by GA parking permits may change as factors such as construction and program changes affect the overall UConn parking plan.

If the University issues a ticket to a GA due to such changes without prior 30-day notification to the Union, the University shall waive all fees for the ticket.
Section 3. The parking rate charged GAs shall be equivalent to Fifty Per Cent (50%) of the full parking rate charged for an Area 2 employee parking permit.
Section 4. If the University increases the full rate for Area 2 parking permits in any given year, such increase shall not exceed the annual percentage increase in faculty base salary exclusive of merit for faculty.
Section 5. For GAs whose assigned duties require it, based on appropriate documentation from a supervisor, the University shall make good-faith effort to provide overnight parking access in the area nearest to their worksite.
Section 6. GAs who purchase parking permits in accordance with this Article at the campus at which they are primarily employed shall have the parking permit honored in commuter and Area 2 parking lots at other campuses when traveling to such locations for University business.
