Good news! An arbitrator ruled that UCSF violated the Postdoc and AR contracts when it raised parking rates by 25%. This means that Postdocs and ARs who purchased a monthly parking pass since July 2020 are due reimbursements ($37/month or up to $444 for the year), and UC must limit parking increases moving forward to comply with the 10% annual caps that are set out in the Postdoc and AR contracts.
