We allow temporary permits on production of a letter from a doctor etc, but they have an expiry date. There is no charge for disabled students to park.

[mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Steve Metcalfe Sent: 04 September 2002 12:08 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Parking again! We are reviewing our parking policy yet again and I would value some advice from other institutions. We currently provide some students and staff who have a temporary disability or mobility problem that is not severe enough for them to obtain a Local Authority orange or blue badge with an orange university parking permit. Demand for these permits has now grown to such an extent that it has become difficult to manage. Do others do anything like this? Should we only recognise Local Authority badges? Your comments please. Steve.
