Beginning Sept. 12, 2022, Parking and Transportation Services (PTS) will implement a charging fee for use of the electric vehicle (EV) charging stations after four hours.
The new changes are as follows:
- There will continue to be no fee for the first four hours of EV charging.
- After four hours, there will be a 30-minute grace period to give parkers who use EV time to move their vehicles from the charging stations.
- After the grace period, a $2-per-hour fee will be charged to the credit card on file with Chargepoint or EVI. The charging fee will not exceed $10 per day.
These changes will give other EV owners at UMB the opportunity to charge their EV vehicles while on campus. The purpose of the charging stations is to provide enough charge to return home, thus parking and not charging is not sustainable for all EV charging users.
Vehicles that are left in the EV spaces must be plugged in and charging. Violators will be subject to a parking citation issued by UMB Public Safety.
