FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — Northern Arizona University students who don't buy Mountain Campus parking permits will still be charged a $30-per-semester "transportation fee," even if they walk, ride bicycles or are dropped off, azdailysun.com reported.
The fee debuts this fall, and will go toward the Mountain Campus' shuttle system. The shuttles are currently financed by parking permit revenues, but as ridership has risen, the service's needs have started to outpace permit collections. For the full story, click here.
