What if my permit is lost, or gets stolen?

Yes, there is a possibility that your permit may be lost or stolen. It is very important that you secure your car when parked on campus.

If your permit is lost, report the loss to KU Parking & Transit immediately. We do encourage you to file a report with the police.

If your permit is stolen, you must file a report with the police. Report the stolen permit to KU Parking & Transit immediately.

In either case, you will be asked to fill out and sign a statement at Parking & Transit office verifying that you reported your permit lost/stolen. You will need to provide a copy of the police report, or the case number assigned by the police.

For lost or stolen permits, Parking & Transit will program this status your permit number into the computerized handheld ticket writer. Upon routine scan of the parking lots, vehicles displaying lost/stolen or forged/altered permits will be towed, issued a $100 ticket, revoked from parking on campus for a year, and the police notified.

If you find your own permit, it is very important that you DO NOT use it. We recommend that you bring it in to our office — you may be eligible for a partial refund of the cost of your replacement permit.

If you have any questions about any of these procedures or policies, please feel free to contact us.
