For the 2009-2010 vehicle sticker year, there will no longer be a separate annual residential permit parking sticker. If you purchase an annual residential parking permit, your new vehicle sticker will now include your residential parking permit zone number (as depicted below). The permit parking zone number is printed right on the vehicle sticker.

In addition, residential parking daily passes have been redesigned into an easy-to-use, label-type format. For more information on this and other City Clerk del Valle modernization initiatives, please click here.

Please note: a current city vehicle sticker is required to purchase an annual residential permit parking sticker. Proof of purchase must be presented at the time of purchase.
Residential parking permit (RPP) zones limit parking to residents and their guests during specified hours. This program helps to ensure that residents of densely populated areas have reasonable access to parking near their residences. Vehicles parked in an RPP zone must display an RPP annual permit or daily pass on their windshield or they may be ticketed. Motorcycles and scooters may park in RPP zones without displaying an annual or visitor residential parking permit.

Daily passes
Please note: A city vehicle sticker or annual residential permit parking sticker are not required to purchase daily passes.

All other traffic restrictions must be followed while displaying a permit. By ordinance, an RPP zone resident can purchase up to 30 daily passes every 30 days. Motorcycles and scooters may park in RPP zones without displaying an annual or visitor residential parking permit.
Annual permit
Annual permits are available for RPP zone resident’s vehicles. There is a limit of one RPP zone permit per vehicle. The annual permits expire on June 30th of each year.
