How does the program work?

If an employee meets the minimum qualifications (as stated above) and submits proper documentation, a discounted parking permit to access a designated parking facility will be issued.

Upon sign-up, applicants must designate the single garage their P-TEP permit will be accepted. Your discount will apply only in that garage. Proof of your hourly wage with a current pay stub is required to qualify for the program. Availability of this program at any facility is subject to change at any time.

Facilities that offer this program include:

Memorial Garage
Old Sacramento Garage (for employees of Old Sacramento merchants)
Tower Bridge Garage

What does it cost to join?

There is an initial $25 administrative fee for joining the program. If your card is stolen, you will be assessed an additional $25 administrative processing fee. With a P-TEP permit, you pay 50 cents per half hour. Discounted rates will apply upon exiting the garage.

Please Note: Abuse of any program, including attempts to validate and use a discount on the same day, will result in the immediate and permanent cancellation of all program privileges.
