The City's Neighborhood Permit Parking Program (NPPP) provides a mechanism for protecting residential streets from external parking overflow when certain criteria are satisfied.

PPOA's are subject to different criteria and procedures.
Specifically, the application fee and parking occupancy study are waived, and the required City of Orange Page 1 of 2 Printed on 10/3/2024

neighborhood support level is reduced from 75% to 55%.
After receiving a written request for permit parking for the aforementioned streets from an eligible resident, staff mailed petitions to the property owners on the affected streets in August of 2024. The polling process concluded in September 2024, the results of which indicate that 69.8% of the property owners are in favor of permit parking, 9.3% were opposed, and 20.9.% did not respond.
Because the level of support exceeds the 55% stipulated in the NPPPP, staff recommends permit parking.
If approved, permit parking does not supersede other parking restrictions such as street sweeping.
Lastly, participation is voluntary. However, once implemented, any vehicle on the street without a permit is subject to citation.
