Council’s policy on residents’ parking permits.
Council will continue to honour existing residents’ only parking space permits issued under the previous policy. However, no new residents’ only on-street parking permits are being issued.
The Suburban Parking Policy applies to residential areas where parking restrictions have not been successful at making on-street parking readily available. In these circumstances, we will extend the parking restrictions and exempt residents’ vehicles from complying with parking time limits under the policy.
There is a fee for residents to register their vehicles to be exempt. It is necessary for Council to approve individual streets to allow residents’ vehicles to be exempt from parking restrictions.
Fees
The permit cost and annual renewal fee are $106 (non-transferable and non-refundable).
If you are an existing permit holder you will be sent a letter prior to the time to renew your permit, towards the end of June of each year. Details on how to obtain this permit are in the letter.
