Hourly parking

Hourly parking for everyone is available in parts of Lot 550, located on the southwest side of the SEEL building. Pay stations are located at the edge of this lot and accept payment by credit cards and coins. Alternatively, you can pay with the app after you park.

ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder features "virtual" parking access, with no need for printed hang tags. The vehicle's license plate information is registered and associated with the parking access, so your license plate is used to identify your vehicle and is valid to park in only the specific lot or zone you purchase.

Payment options include both pretax and post-tax payroll deductions which occur at the end of the month for which you had a permit. Permits with a start date on or after the 15th of the month will have your first month's price prorated to $30.00. Ongoing deductions will continue until you submit a request for cancellation of their permit. Requests for cancellation must be effective before the end of the month to avoid being billed for the next month. Payment is non-refundable.
