It will provide 453 parking spots. <\/p>\n<p>UNMC is in talks to purchase a third property for more parking in the area, Thomas said. <\/p>\n<p><B>Construction schedule<\/B><\/p>\n<p>Demolition of the Patient\/Visitor Parking Structure is tentatively set for the spring. It is hoped that the new parking lots will be completed by this time. Lot No. 4 will close after the new parking lots open. <\/p>\n<p>Once constructed, plans call for shuttles to run to the new lots, which will only be for employees who work day shifts. Information about shuttles and parking assignments will be released as plans develop, Thomas said. <\/p>\n<p><B>Also at the forums <\/B><\/p>\n<p>Other forum news included:<br \/>\n<UL><LI>Construction on the cancer center project is scheduled to start in 2013 and be completed in June 2016; and<br \/>\n<LI>Employee health insurance premiums will not go up in 2012, however, rates may go up $1 to $3 a month in January to help fund the Employee Plus One initiative that will expand eligibility for participation in the university&#8217;s benefits program to include
