Residential / transitional parking permits

The Town provides parking permits to residents in accordance with the Parking Permit Policy and parking local law.

Two types of permits can be issued: following assessment against the criteria:

Residential permit* - provides residents who have limited onsite parking with an exemption to access parking near their properties that have sign-posted restrictions.
Transitional permit - provides residents up to 12 months to make alternative arrangements if there is inadequate onsite parking when restrictions adjacent to their property have recently changed.

Application Fee	$35	$35
Replacement Fee	$35	$35

Before applying for a permit, please check your eligibility below as the application fee is non-refundable. The application fee covers an assessment from the Town's planning team to determine whether a residential property complies or not with the on-site parking requirements of the State Planning Policy 7.3 Residential Design Codes (R Codes) and includes the processing of the application, regardless of the outcome. The minimum on-site car parking requirement depends on the housing type, number of bedrooms and proximity to high frequency public transport.
