How do I upload my documents?

The following documents are required to obtain or renew a resident parking permit:
To apply for a Visitor Parking Permit and Day Pass you will need:
For the purpose of information validation, we require you to share your vehicle and ICBC insurance information with us. To uphold your privacy and protect you from fraud, you are required to apply for your permit in person. We will not issue permits to anyone acting as a proxy, regardless of their relationship or connection to you.
Resident Parking Permits are assigned to specific license plate numbers and Visitor Parking Permits are assigned to a specific UNA address.
Parking Permits may only be issued for and used within a resident’s own neighbourhood. If the assigned licence plate number & issued neighbourhood are not a match to the vehicle’s licence plate & parking location, it will be towed.
Permit expiry is based on the specific term of your neighbourhood. Any annual permits purchased after the start of the permit term are prorated at $0.38 per day, plus applicable taxes.

Parking Permits are available to residents of Wesbrook Place and Hawthorne Place within each of their respective neighbourhoods. There are no parking permits for residents of Hampton Place, Chancellor Place, or East Campus.

What If My Visitor Has A SPARC Permit?
SPARC permit holders can park in the on-street accessible stalls if they display a valid Visitor Parking Pass or a day permit. SPARC permit holders cannot use their Resident Parking decals to park in accessible stalls.

What if I need to use on-street parking when I move?
The UNA does not reserve parking spaces for moving purposes. Moving trucks can use permit parking stalls without a permit, as long as they have a company logo clearly displayed on the vehicle. Residents may use their own personal vehicles to reserve preferred parking stalls, using their Resident Parking Permit, or Day Passes.
Can I park a moving container near my home?
No, parking a moving container near your front door is prohibited. Containers can only be parked within designated parking bays on the street, and this requires prior approval from the UNA at parking@myuna.ca. When requesting approval, make sure to provide details such as the date of placement, container size, transport company, and a contact person representing the company.
Is a moving container permit similar to a parking permit?
No, a moving container permit is not the same as a parking permit. The container placement must be temporary and comply with the required approvals. You need to be present during the delivery and collection of the container. The permit only allows for container placement, not parking vehicles or other equipment. Remember that the container must be removed within 72 hours after placing it on the street. Additionally, you must ensure the parking area remains clean while the container is there and after it’s been collected.
Do I need to notify anyone if I change the date or time of the container delivery?
Yes, it’s essential to inform the University Neighborhood Association (UNA) about any changes in the date or time of placing the container on the street. Please provide this notification at least seven days before the planned container placement.
