Disabled permit parking is allowed in specially designated spaces and any other marked space, but not in reserved and restricted spaces. A University of Miami parking lot appropriate parking permit (including daily passes or other temporary UM permits) and a state disabled parking placard are required to park in disabled spaces on campus. If a vehicle is parked in a disabled space with a state disabled placard but without paying for the University of Miami parking, the vehicle will be cited for ‘No Valid Parking Permit.' If a vehicle has paid for the University of Miami parking but no state disabled placard, the vehicle will be cited for 'Parking in a Disabled Space.'
