Council provides property owners and residents with parking permits for selected residential streets, foreshore and reserve parking areas.  

We’re going digital!    

In 2026 we are introducing a digital system for all parking permits, including our Manly resident parking schemes and the Beach Parking Permit.  

The new digital system will replace physical parking permits and will link permits to vehicle registrations, simplifying the application and renewal process.

This move to digital parking permits is being done in a staged way as permits expire. Existing permit holders will receive instructions on how and when to apply for a new permit in advance of the expiry of their current permits.
