New parking garage philosophy: .'pay as you go'

Permits will not be valid in the new facility, though those. responsible for the decision feel that a "pay- as-you-go" plan will benefit everyone involved. The rates for parking will remain the same as those on the visitor lots of the Stu- dent Union and Administra- . tion buildings, $1 an hour or 50 cents per half-hour.
