Does the institution allow commuters to cash out of parking spaces (i.e., it pays employees who do not drive to work)?:
Yes

A brief description of the program:

At UMass Amherst, there is no free parking. The cost of a parking permit is determined by type of lot and is pro-rated by salary. Parking lot costs are fairly high, so employee or student who chooses not to purchase a parking permit is effectively saving upwards of $300/year.
