II. Registration of Motor Vehicles
A. Campus registration of motor vehicles for
faculty, staff and students is required for Fall Semester and must
be maintained throughout the year. (This includes full-time, part-time
and night). Vehicles must be registered during the week of general
academic registration as listed in the catalog or immediately after
the vehicle is brought to campus. Registration is required to operate
a vehicle on the campus anytime day or night, including weekends.
Faculty and staff will have a choice of stick-on or hang-tag permits.
These regulations are also applicable to persons with disabled
registration status. Disabled registration may only be used by
the person it has been issued to. Disabled registration may be
obtained through the County Court Clerk’s office.
B. The motor vehicle registration stick-on permit
must be obtained and affixed permanently (cannot be taped) to the
left rear bumper or the rear glass of the vehicle. Hang-tag permits
must be hung on the stem of the rear view mirror. Those permits
not properly affixed will be regarded as void; the owner will be
cited for failure to display a permit.
C. ALL FACULTY, STAFF AND STUDENTS operating
a vehicle on campus on a temporary basis, as a substitute for a
permanently registered vehicle, may be issued a temporary permit
upon application to the Tennessee Tech Police Department. Students
who bring their vehicles on campus only during the last week of
the semester need not permanently register their vehicles, but
must secure a temporary permit for that week. Temporary permits
issued to those persons who do not have a permanent registration
will be limited to one week. Others will be issued for two weeks.
D. Motorcycles will be registered as motor vehicles
and the special stick-on permit will be affixed to a prominent
place on the vehicle.
E. All EMPLOYEES (FACULTY AND STAFF) should register
vehicles preceding Fall registration or immediately after arriving
on the campus. Vehicle registration must be completed by the end
of the first week of the Fall Semester.
F. FACULTY, STAFF AND STUDENTS are issued color-coded
decals indicating their proper parking area. Faculty and staff
are not authorized to furnish parking permits to students except
students who are spouses of the faculty or staff member. Also,
permits will be provided by the registrant to other faculty and
staff members.
G. Faculty and Staff may only purchase one permit
with the following exceptions: Employee & spouse live on campus
or has convertible/soft top car or motorcycle as alternate vehicle.
The vehicle registration fee, per permit, for Administrative Staff
and Faculty (GOLD in color) will be $50 for Fall Semester, $30
for Spring Semester and $10 for the Summer Semester. The vehicle
registration fee, per permit, for Clerical and Support Staff (PURPLE

is included in the General Access Fee. Each additional permit
will be $50 for Fall Semester, $30 for Spring Semester and $10
for Summer Semester. The charge for replacement of a lost or stolen
hang tag will be $20 for Fall Semester, $12 for Spring Semester
and $7 for Summer Semester. PERMITS WILL BE REPLACED FREE
OF CHARGE ONLY WHEN THE NUMBERS ARE RETURNED INTACT TO THE TENNESSEE

H. No individual is allowed to give,
loan, furnish or sell a parking permit to another individual.

Tech Police Department to retain the privilege of driving a vehicle
on campus. Faculty and staff are not permitted to loan
or furnish a parking permit to anyone other than his or her spouse.
