Resident parking permit
A resident parking permit allows you to park one nominated vehicle in any street within the designated area of your address.
You can add a foreshore permit to your resident permit for an additional cost. You can then park the nominated vehicle for free along the foreshore and in council car parks near the beach. You must follow the parking time limits wherever you park.
Fees
| Permit Type | Display | Conditions | Fee | Expiry |

| Combined resident and foreshore | window sticker | Park in your designated area with no time limits and free park at the foreshore within time limits | $142 | 1 year |
Do you hold a Concession card?
Eligible concession card holders pay a flat fee of $25 per parking permit (this includes resident, combined, foreshore and visitor permits). To be eligible, the address details on your concession card must match the property address of your permit application and you must be the primary cardholder. More details and approved concession cards accepted can be found here Identification and Documents Required.
Check if your address is eligible
Not all properties are eligible for parking permits. If your home was built or subdivided after 1 October 2002, you may not be able to get a permit. Use our online eligibility checker before you apply.
