• This is a voluntary program. Residents living in a block included in the permit system are not required to purchase permits, however compliance with city parking regulations is required.
• Permits may be renewed through the mail with proper documentation and a $45 fee. Permits will be issued by the City Clerk’s Office on a first come, first served basis.
• The residential parking permit is required to be placed on the backseat window on the driver’s side of the vehicle.  If the backseat windows are tinted, then the permit should be placed on the driver's window, near the door handle.  The permit needs to be clearly visible from the street at all times.  Permits should never be placed on the windshield, the only information that should be placed on the windshield is the vehicle registration and inspection stickers. 
• If a permit holder wishes to transfer a permit to a different vehicle, or there is a change of license plates on a vehicle with a permit, the new license plate number and vehicle identification number must be reported to the City Clerk. A new permit will be issued without charge, only if physical remnants of the old permit are returned. If the physical remnants of the old permit are not returned, the new permit will only be issued if there is an eligible permit available for the property, at a cost of $45.
