There is a change in parking procedures for Visiting Ministers and Volunteer Chaplains from Monday – Friday between 6 p.m. – 7 a.m. during the hours the front information desk is not attended. During this time please do not park in the parking garage, but instead use the employee surface parking lot RHT across from the Schuttes Restaurant at 8th/Postoffice. No token is needed for this parking lot. This is normally an employee only parking lot and the parking office is making it available to anyone for parking free from the hours of 6 p.m. – 7 a.m. everyday--or anytime on weekends or UTMB holidays.    
 
NEW!!!!!  Parking garage afterhours alternative
For your information: For those who do not mind paying the UTMB parking office a small monthly fee of $10., there is a gate card available. This is available to UTMB badged visiting ministers and volunteer chaplains who would like to use the parking garage Monday-Friday 5 p.m. to 9:15 a.m., during the weekend 24 hours a day, or during a UTMB holiday 24 hours a day.
