§ 6.07.020. Designation of area and restrictions.  


Latest version.
  • The city council may establish a particular area as a residential permit parking district upon the completion of the following:

    (1)

    The city traffic engineer shall conduct a study to ascertain whether parking spaces on the streets within a particular residential area are used for the parking of vehicles not belonging to residents to such an extent as to create congestion, excessive noise, air pollution, and cause the residents of the area unreasonable burdens in gaining access to their residences, and

    (2)

    If the majority of the contiguous property owners to the streets in such an area, or portion thereof, do not object to the establishment of a permit parking area, the city council may then establish such area as a residential permit parking district.

    (3)

    Permits issued shall be limited to actual on-street parking spaces available as determined by the traffic engineer or his or her designee. Once capacity has been reached, no additional permits shall be issued for the period.

    (4)

    Permits shall be limited to one permit per bedroom of the address associated with the property as determined by the Washoe County Assessor.

    (5)

    Residents residing in developments that have been granted parking reductions by the City of Reno are not eligible to receive residential or visitor parking permits.

    (6)

    No permits will be issued to the residents of multi-family dwellings.
