If you live in a controlled parking zone (CPZ) you may be eligible for a resident parking permit.
Resident permits are virtual permits and are valid for 12 months from the chosen start date.
A resident permit is only valid in the CPZ it was issued for. Having a permit does not guarantee you a parking space or give you the right to park outside your house.
You must live at an eligible address within a CPZ in the borough to apply for a resident parking permit. You cannot apply if you own a property in a CPZ but do not live there.
