				person constitutes illegal use of a parking permit. Visitor permits are valid
				in any zone and parking spaces signed for visitors only. Visitor permits are
				not valid at meters or restricted spaces.
(2) Golden cougar permits. Golden cougar
				permits are special visitor permits that are issued to retired staff in
				recognition of their service without additional cost. They are issued on an
				annual basis and are valid in any zone. Staff who are employed by the
				university or other entities located on campus after formal retirement are not
				eligible to use a golden cougar permit in lieu of a regular paid zone
				permit.
(3) President's associates
				decals. President's associates decals are issued to eligible members of the
				Washington State University foundation. Use of these decals for parking shall
				be in accordance with a separate agreement between WSU and the WSU foundation.

				decal or any other parking benefit instrument in lieu of a paid zone
				permit.
