Parking Information - Abilene

Citation appeal status may be checked online.

Appeals to the HSC Parking Services Office must be made online within 10 calendar days of the alleged violation. An individual has 3 opportunities to appeal a citation.

A first appeal will be reviewed by the Administrative Review Officer (ARO). You must appeal the ARO's decision within 10 days of the letter denying the first appeal.

A second appeal will be reviewed by the Parking Appeals Committee.

A final appeals hearing may be provided should the individual wish to contest the findings of the Parking Appeals Committee. The Hearings Officer will be appointed each year by the Law School Student Bar Association. The final appeal must be submitted within 10 days from the date of the letter denying the second appeal. Individuals appearing before the Hearings Officer must bring any supporting documentation. The decision of the Hearings Officer is final and no further appeals will be provided. Individuals who fail to appear at three scheduled hearings before the Law School Hearings Officer will have his citation(s) ruled valid and no further appeals will be provided.

All citations must be paid or appealed within 10 calendar days of issue. A $5 penalty will be assessed after the 10th day. They may be paid either in person at the HSC Parking Services Office or online using a major credit card.

• Faculty, Staff and Others: Vehicle registration will be withheld until all citations have been paid.
• Students: Overdue citations will result in an administrative hold, restricting subsequent academic registration and withholding the student's transcript until such time as the citation fee is paid.
• Note: Four valid violations within the academic year may result in the revocation of the individual's parking privileges for a period of 90 days. If, at the end of 90 days the individual's parking privileges are restored, a single violation of the Regulations may result in permanent revocation for the academic year.

Additional information for submitting an appeal for a parking citation:

• A factual statement supporting why a citation should be dismissed is required. Opinions and/or a lack of knowledge of Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center parking regulations are not valid reasons for an appeal.
• Each parking citation must be appealed individually (avoid references to other appeals).
• The individual appealing the citation is responsible for providing supporting documentation (reference letters, receipts, pictures, etc.). Parking Services will NOT make additional efforts to obtain this information.

Complete a Parking Payroll Deduction Authorization online via the TTUHSC Parking Services website. Faculty and staff currently on payroll deduction are only required to update their vehicle registration as needed and all changes can be made on the Parking Services website. Payroll deduction will continue until the employee elects to have it terminated.

Payroll Deduction Authorization Terms and Conditions

By authorizing payroll deduction for a parking permit for the TTUHSC Abilene Campus, the registrant understands and agrees to the following:

• Vehicle registration payroll deduction can be made from Texas Tech payroll checks only;
• The annual vehicle registration fees are subject to change and I hereby authorize my payroll deduction to be changed for the duration of my employment at TTUHSC or until I take action to terminate payroll deduction;
• I must remit payment in full to the TTUHSC Finance and Administration Office for any months not covered by payroll deduction;
• If I chose to cancel the payroll deduction, I understand that I will do this myself by selecting ‘End Payroll Deduction’ on my parking dashboard.
• My vehicle registration permit can be revoked and the TTUHSC Finance and Administration Office can terminate the payroll deduction in the event of unpaid parking tickets or failure to pay the required amounts due for the permit;
• Upon separation of employment from TTUHSC, I must remove and surrender the vehicle registration permit decal to the TTUHSC Finance and Administration Office. Upon receipt of the permit decal, the Finance and Administration Office will initiate any refund which may be due me.

All TTUHSC students must purchase their parking permit though the Parking Services website each year they are parking on the TTUHSC campus. You will be issued a new parking permit each year once you have completed your payment.  If you need to pay with cash, please go to the Finance & Administration Suite 2100 on the second floor of the Public Health building.

It is TTUHSC policy. Parking lot upkeep and repairs are funded by these fees.

Exact cash, check, money order, or credit/debit card (online only). Make checks and money orders payable to TTUHSC for the exact amount due. We are only able to accept credit or debit cards as payment online via the Parking Services website.

Access your Employee Parking Dashboard online and follow the instructions for enrolling. Deduction renews automatically each fiscal year. https://www.fiscal.ttuhsc.edu/Parking

3. If the permit no longer adheres on its own or it is no longer fully intact, bring the permit to the Finance & Administration Office to obtain a replacement permit. You may also obtain a replacement permit if you are unable to retrieve the permit from your vehicle.

Ask the repair company to transfer your permit and other stickers to the new windshield. If this is not possible, remove the permit and bring it to the F&A Office and purchase a replacement permit for a $2 fee.

• You may park at your own risk on the streets surrounding the TTUHSC campus. Many of the streets allow parking on only one side of the street, so watch for informational signs placed by the city. A map showing commonly used areas is included in the Parking Information Packet.
• Parking in the lots of surrounding businesses is prohibited, including any of Hendrick Medical Center’s 27 parking lots.

You may request that your appeal be sent to the Traffic and Parking Appeals Committee for a second review.
