Eligible residents of the East Castle Street scheme will be able to purchase one resident parking permit per premise, with one car registration allowed per permit, at a cost of £100.
Eligible residents of East Castle Street will receive 200 hours of visitor permits per year if they buy a residents parking permit. Eligible residents who don't purchase a residents parking permit may buy the same amount of visitors permits at a cost of £5 per year.
Eligible residents of East Castle Street may also apply for an evening car park permit (max one per household) to park in North or South Listley Street car park, between 4pm and 10am, at an annual cost of £384. Spaces are limited, so they will be issued on a first come first served basis.
Proprietors of holiday let properties located within the East Castle Street scheme may purchase a parking permit for use by their customers during the rental of the holiday let property. Each establishment will be entitled to purchase one digital permit annually at a cost of £100.
The provision that allows businesses to buy residents parking permits will be withdrawn.
