Anaheim is proposing an updated permit-parking program that seeks to improve street parking throughout the city.

Parking is in high demand in Anaheim, creating concerns for residents and businesses. The updated program aims to ensure this resource is equally available to everyone.

The proposed update streamlines the current permit-parking program with new, larger permit-parking districts, a quicker application process, and a new system that issues permits based on number of bedrooms.

To support the updated permit-parking program, the city is also proposing new ordinances prohibiting oversized vehicles and limiting autos for sale on city streets.

The City Council held an initial review of the proposed update at its meeting on Feb. 27.

Residents can review the proposed program online and submit comments via an online survey or by emailing permitparking@anaheim.net.

There will be more opportunities for residents and businesses to ask questions and weigh in during a a town hall meeting on March 13 from 6-8 p.m. in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 200 S. Anaheim Blvd.

The final version of these new parking ordinances could go before the City Council for consideration on March 27.
