The Residential Parking Permit Program responds to the problem of scarce parking on predominantly residential streets by reducing the competition for curbside space. This can be accomplished by enforcing a two hour parking time limit, with residential parking permit holders exempted.

The fee for permit parking is $30.00 + HST per year, payable in one lump sum upon issuance of permit in May of each year.

Conditions

• A Residential Parking Permit may be issued upon application to the Saint John Parking Commission to the lessee or registered owner of a vehicle in respect of that vehicle who resides on a street within one of the residential parking permit zones.

• A Residential Parking Permit may be issued to more than one vehicle per dwelling unit.
• A Residential Parking Permit will not be issued to residents who have access to off-street parking. Any exemptions will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
• Temporary Residential Zone Parking Permits are available for out-of-town guests of residents at a cost of $5.00 plus HST per week or portion thereof.
