How Much Does it Cost?

Vehicle and Guest Permits

Most RPZ permits are on a two-year cycle, with all permits in a zone expiring at the same time. Please see the Permit Expiration Dates page to see when your zone permits will expire. 

RPZ permits and guest RPZ permits cost $95. 

We no longer issue stickers/ decals. RPZ permits are now digitial, except for guest permits and short-term permits. Parking Enforcement officers use license plate recognition (LPR) technology to confirm that a vehicle has a permit in an RPZ. We still issue hangtags for guest permits. 

*The guest Permit prices listed below are the prices of a Guest Permit when purchased in combination with an RPZ permit. When purchasing a Guest Permit ONLY, the price is the same as the price listed in the “1st Vehicle at address” column. 

Some zones are partially or fully subsidized by nearby major institutions to address the impacts of parking by their employees and/or students. For specific fees by zone and area, please see below.
