Residential Permit Types

Residential Permits are free of charge. Replacement permits are $25 each. Permit expiration is based on the permit area.

Permit holders and drivers parked in Residential Permit Parking Program (RPPP) areas are subject to posted parking regulations and Sacramento City Code chapter 10.48.

HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR PERMIT AREA: Check the posted signs on the side of the block where you reside. If there is a sign that includes the words "Except with _ Permit", then those spaces are regulated by Residential Permit Parking and the letter on the sign is your permit area. 

  • Vehicle Permit: Virtual permit that utilizes the vehicle license plate as a credential.

  • Visitor Permit: Placard that must be displayed on driver’s side dashboard, not covering VIN number. May be used by guests or residents of permit address.

  • Temporary Permit: Placard that must be displayed on driver’s side dashboard, not covering VIN number. Use depends on resident’s need for permit.

Drivers who display valid Disabled Parking Placards are exempt from Residential Permit Parking regulations and do not need a Residential Permit. (Disabled Placard Parking Regulations)
