Where Does the Money Come From?...How Do We Use
It?
NCSU Transportation is totally receipts supported and does not
receive funding from any other source; we do not receive any appropriated
money.
A NC Supreme Court ruling
impacted the Transportation budget, as well as the budgets of 16
UNC school systems. This ruling directs the majority of funds generated
by parking citations to the local school systems.
Meeting Parking Demand
As the University has grown, the parking system has also grown to
accommodate increased need. The parking space inventory is approximately
18,000 spaces. The majority of any new spaces are in parking decks,
which require more extensive and expensive maintenance (structural
checks, lighting, etc.)
Funding Levels Equal Service Levels
The level of service provided is contingent on the level of funding.
From monies collected, Transportation administers parking services,
campus transit, and maintains all parking lots and decks including
paving, repairs, snow removal, and lighting.
Revenues are derived primarily from the sale of parking permits,
paylots, parking meters, and the student transit fee.
