Parking Permit Information
- Will I be getting a guest pass with my permit application?
-
Each residence is allowed one guest permit with their residential permit application. There is no physical guest pass issued. You must add a vehicle when applying that will serve as your guest vehicle. Manage your guest vehicle in the parking permit portal by logging in to your account and clicking on your name on the upper right corner of the screen and selecting "your permits". Edit your guest vehicle by clicking on the pencil on the right side of the guest vehicle and enter your guest's plate number.
- When may I apply for a parking permit renewal?
-
Parking permits are available for purchase or renewal starting the month they expire.
- What if I sell my car?
-
Residents or businesses can change their plate number assigned in the parking permit portal by logging in to their account and clicking on their name on the upper right corner of the screen and selecting your permits then editing the vehicle information by clicking on the pencil on the right side of the vehicle.
- How do I know what zone I am in, and where my zone begins and ends?
-
There is a map located on this web-site you may view. Additionally, signs are posted throughout the town on each block that has been zoned for permits.
- Is my permit good for parking on main street and in the center lane?
-
No, you must pay to park in the business district from Aspen to Alder and on adjoining side streets where posted. All other streets allow free two-hour parking, permits exempt.
