Monthly commercial parking permits are going digital!
This feature will be offered in the coming months. You can purchase a monthly parking pass for daytime parking in eligible municipal parking lots in a commercial area.
What to expect from the new permits:
- Permit holders will be able to manage their parking permit payment through their online account. Payments can be made by credit card only.
- No physical permit is required to be displayed.
- Parking permits can only be registered to one vehicle at a time. Sharing a permit may continue by updating the licence plate information for the date required. This change can easily be made through the permit holder's online account.
- As the town continues to digitally transform and expand online service options, an increase in rates will help support the digital infrastructure.
