  • Overnight Parking Permits do not permit the holder to park anywhere in the city.   Permit holders may only park on permitted streets in the district in which they live.  Maps of the parking districts can be found here.
  • If the street you want to park on is yellow on the district map, overnight parking is allowed on one side of the street. If no signage exists on the street to prohibit parking on either side, parking is allowed on the side without utility poles.
  • Overnight Parking Permits do not give permit holders the right to a specific parking space. (i.e. you are not guaranteed the parking space outside your residence).  Parking spaces are part of the public right-of-way and cannot be reserved for a specific person, property, or vehicle.
  • Overnight Parking Permit holders may obtain one (1) guest pass at an additional cost of $25.00. The guest pass may be used up to five (5) times per month. Guest permits must be printed and displayed on the left side of the rear windshield.   The guest permit MUST be displayed in the guest’s vehicle to avoid ticketing.
  • Overnight Parking Permits are valid for one (1) year from their issue date. It is the responsibility of the permit holder to renew their permit in a timely manner. Vehicles parked on the street with expired permits are subject to being ticketed.
  • Parking Bans:  Overnight Parking Permit holders must remove their vehicles from the street when parking bans are issued for snow or another emergency.  Please pay attention to local newscasts and announcements. The city will email permit holders about impending parking bans. Please ensure that your email address is entered correctly to ensure receipt of parking ban related emails.  Leaving your car parked on the street during a parking ban leaves your vehicle subject to ticketing and towing.
  • Street Sweeping: The city sweeps streets annually.   Your street will be posted with no parking signs with the days and times of the street sweeping.  Overnight parking permit holders may not park on streets posted as no parking for street sweeping.   Permit holders may park on other streets in the district which are not posted for street sweeping.
