Residents can obtain a temporary parking permit by bringing in the required information to the Community Safety Office between 7 a.m. and midnight, Monday through Friday, and 7 p.m. and midnight on weekends. Temporary parking permits in excess of one day can be obtained by phone if the resident calls at least two days in advance, any day during the week, of the period requested. This will enable staff to mail the permit to the resident. The semi-annual parking permit is for those residences that have more passenger vehicles than their driveways and garages can fit. If a vehicle registration lists the owner as someone other than the principal owner of the home, the address of the vehicle registration must be verified against the address on the individual's driver's license.
Households are eligible for multiple semi-annual parking permits.
Semi-annual parking permits can be awarded at any time during the year to those eligible, but expire on June 30 and December 31 of each year. Renewal is not automatic and permit holders must reapply for their issuance during the regular renewal period. Households must meet the eligibility requirement and submit appropriate documentation to the Community Safety Office. Documentation includes copies of vehicle registration and driver's license information. Also, driver's licenses will be checked to verify a vehicle's driver also resides at the Cerritos address.
