Residential Parking Permits

Residents who live within the boundaries of a residential parking zone may be eligible for a permit. Permits cannot be issued to non-residents, Waverley businesses or non-resident ratepayers.

Permits can only be issued to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of less than 4.5 tonnes and cannot be issued to trucks, trailers, boat trailers, caravans or any vehicle with a length greater than 6 metres. Unregistered vehicles are not eligible for a permit.

Permits are valid for 6 or 12 months from the date of purchase. Permit holders should renew their permit by submitting an application form and supporting documentation prior to the expiry of their current permit.

Interim Residential Parking Permits are granted only to enable residents time to update their vehicle registration to their current address and are only available once per registration. There are two types of Interim Residential Parking Permits:

• 30 Day Permits will be granted to residents who are updating their NSW Registration address
• 3 Month Permits will be granted to residents who are transferring their registration from interstate

The number of permits a household may be entitled to is limited by the number of off-street parking spaces available i.e. garage, carport, driveway, etc.

A maximum of 3 residential or visitor permits may be held by a household at any time, as per the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) Permit Parking Guidelines. Non-strata properties and registered boarding houses are entitled to only 1 permit per unit.

Daily Visitor Permits and Tradesperson permits may be applied for in addition to the residential permit allocation.
