Report to UIC 22 Chancellor’s Committee on Sustainability and Energy Data provided by Parking Services is displayed in Figures 9, 10 and 11. Parking permits charts show the change in the number of permit holders by certain classifications for the years FY01-09. There has been a 33% overall decrease in permit holders. This decrease is particularly evident for students (230%) and aligns with the implementation of the U-PASS program in 2001 on campus. Residents also show a significant reduction in parking use (25%), although they do not have access to the U-PASS. The other categories have remained fairly constant, given change in population. During the years 2004 to 2008, the overall population of students increased 8.7% and the population of faculty and staff increased 5%. An interesting comparison can be made between the east and west side data. There has been a 38% decrease among non-academic employee parking permits on the east side, whereas there has been a slight increase on the west side. This may be partially due to the reduction in non-academic employees of the years.
