ALL EXPIRING PERMITS IN DECEMBER 2025 WILL BE HONORED THROUGH APRIL 30TH, 2026. Please continue to use your current guest permit while the City is transitioning to our new web-based residential parking program.

Improving Residential Parking in 2026!

The City of Monterey is introducing updates to the Residential Parking Program making parking more convenient and efficient foMap showing the residential parking permit areasr our residents. See map of residential permit zones.

The new online portal will allow residents to create accounts, apply for permits, upload supporting documents, and manage their vehicles, including adding, changing, or removing them as needed. This technology will also improve how our staff manages the RPP Program, enabling smoother operations both behind the scenes and in the field. Ultimately, modernizing the program will provide a more convenient experience for residents and improve service for RPP neighborhoods. We understand that some residents may prefer in-person assistance, and our office will still be available for support for those who choose to visit us in person instead of online.

  • Updated Residential Parking Permit Program: What to Expect - also see Facts Sheet
    The Residential Parking Permit (RPP) Program is being implemented in phases based on existing permit expiration dates. This phased approach allows the City to work directly with each neighborhood and provide a smooth transition. Residents who receive a notice are asked to register to indicate whether they would like the Residential Parking Permit program to continue on their block. If a neighborhood receives sufficient participation, the program will continue and permits will be made available for purchase at a later date. If a neighborhood does not receive enough participation, the program will expire and parking will return to standard citywide rules. Registration is free and does not require a permit purchase. Residents can register at: https://monterey.getapermit.net
    • New Monterey and Cannery Row
      • Initial notices mailed in January 2026
      • A second notice will be mailed February 9, 2026 to provide an additional opportunity to register
      • Registration is required to confirm whether residents want the RPP program to continue in this neighborhood
      • Existing permits and guest passes remain valid through April 30, 2026
    • Old Monterey and Downtown Residential Neighborhoods
      • Notices will be mailed by Friday, February 13, 2026
      • Requalification outreach for these neighborhoods will begin upon receipt of the mailed notice
      • No action is required until residents receive their notice
    • Oak Grove
      • Oak Grove permits remain valid through December 31, 2026
      • Requalification outreach for Oak Grove is anticipated to begin in summer 2026
      • No action is required at this time

  • Share Parking on Euclid Avenue: I understand that Euclid Avenue is part of the residential parking permit program. We have permits for our two vehicles and two guest parking permits. During the summer and fall season, Casanova park is used frequently for parties, and child friendly events. During these events, it is usually that the visitors park along Euclid Avenue for the duration of their event -- four to six hours -- and sometimes block driveways. When we leave the area to run errands on the weekends, we return to a full neighborhood of parked cars,. and sometime cannot park in our driveway or have to walk several blocks to carry groceries, etc to home. We understand that living next to a park brings weekend visitors but on occasion they do not seem to respect the neighborhood leaving their garbage on the sidewalks and balloons floating through the neighborhood. When there are active events at the fairgrounds it only magnifies the parking problem. We want the visitors to enjoy the park but wonder what conditions are required by the visitor and their guests that impact the neighborhood. on Facebook Share Parking on Euclid Avenue: I understand that Euclid Avenue is part of the residential parking permit program.

    Hi! Thank you for sharing your expierence of living near Casanova Park, and I can hear how frusterating it is to deal with parking challenges and garbage produced. Sounds like you're asking what the rules are for someone having an event at Casanova Park which you can find more information about by visiting the City of Monterey's Park and Recreation page.

  • Share Here are a few ideas, questions .. thank you.. we’d like to have mentioned at the meeting - unfortunately, we can not attend. Lack of communication with both the Fairgrounds and Golf course on late changes to their attendances and impacts are forcing us to ask for parking enforcement on all their events. The Porsche event at the Golf course and the Motorsports attracting the Fast and Furious crowds are prime examples. There has to be in place alternative parking provided by them in advance instead of impacting our residents. There are still repercussions from the Fair fights, today Monterey Police announced 9 arrests tying the fighting to a shooting in Seaside, I am hearing that many residents feel the present program is punitive to residents here, they object to the limit on guests parking passes when they have guests or parties, they are presently getting citations, even contractors working on their houses get cited. They want livable rules. The present program keeps parking orderly, without the program we experience blocked driveways, parking on corners blocking public safety vehicles, we get increased litter, prowlers, car break-ins, all targets of opportunity from wandering strangers. So far the vast majority do not want a permanent program and we doubt that the City has adequate staffing or resources for that. on Facebook Share Here are a few ideas, questions .. thank you.. we’d like to have mentioned at the meeting - unfortunately, we can not attend.

    Thanks so much for posting and sharing your concerns. We hear you on the lack of communication from the Fairgrounds and Golf Course, the parking and safety impacts from large events, and the frustrations with guest passes and contractor citations under the current program. These are important points, and they’ll be part of the discussion at today’s meeting. We really appreciate you taking the time to weigh in.

  • Share There doesn’t seem to be a consistent parking enforcement policy. The sign on the head of Ramona has been rotated so no one can read it anymore, but it used to say one hour parking for non-residence. That has never been enforced and recently when we had a car parked out in front of our house for three days, the officer said there’s no policy for nonresident parking. The car in front of our house appears to be abandoned and even though I called into Parking, it’s not been marked after three days. on Facebook Share There doesn’t seem to be a consistent parking enforcement policy.

    Thanks for sharing your concerns—consistent parking enforcement is definitely key to keeping things running smoothly! You're absolutely right to call the Parking Office at 831-646-3953 when a car has been parked for more than three days. Once reported, our team will mark the vehicle and check back after 72 hours to see if it's been moved. If you feel your concern has not been addressed please email me at lbradley@monterey.org and I would be happy to assist!

    As for Ramona Ave, it's currently not part of the Residential Parking Permit (RPP) program, which means parking there is still first-come, first-served. If you're interested in seeing your neighborhood join the updated RPP program, stay tuned—we’ll be sharing how you can petition to be included soon!

    Thank you for your question! I’ll need a bit more information to fully understand what type of permit you're referring to. But in the meantime, here’s some information that might help. If this doesn’t answer your question, feel free to give us a call at (831) 646-3953 — we’re happy to assist further.

    Jeff asked 6 months ago

    You're absolutely right—parking in your neighborhood, especially on weekends and during the summer season, can be very challenging.

    While your permit is assigned to your specific block, if no spaces are available there, you are allowed to park as close as possible to your block on other streets within the CR zone. The map on the website reflects the full boundaries of the CR zone, which includes additional streets where your permit is valid in this circumstance.
