Residential parking permits
Eligible residents can apply for a permit to park in some time-restricted parking zones, where limited off-street parking is available. Permits can be obtained to park in zones known as Resident Parking Schemes only.
Am I eligible?
It depends how much off-street parking is available in your residence.
Each household may be eligible for up to 3 permits, dependent upon meeting eligibility criteria.
How much does a permit cost?
You can find the cost of permits in Council's Fees & Charges.
Fees are used to offset the cost of signposts and management of the Resident Parking Schemes.
Permits must be renewed every year. Council will send you a renewal letter when your permit is approaching the expiration date.
New Resident Parking Schemes
Administration and implementation of Resident Parking Schemes is subject to the Transport for NSW Permit Parking Guidelines. New residential parking schemes must be implemented in accordance with the requirements outlined in these guidelines. Residents may write to Council seeking the establishment of a resident parking scheme in their street. Council officers will then monitor on and off-street parking activity and, if it appears that a resident parking scheme may be warranted, residents will be surveyed to determine if there is support. If Council can establish that there is compliance with the Transport for NSW guidelines and support for the introduction of restrictions, approval will be sought through the Willoughby Council Local Traffic Committee.
