Commercial Permit Parking

BD10749_.wmf (30042 bytes)

Employees who work in a commercial district are strongly encouraged to walk (if
possible), bicycle or take transit to their workplaces so that as many parking spaces as possible are left available for customers. To assist businesses located in our commercial areas, however, a limited number of employee parking permits are available for purchase. Here’s how they work:



Coolidge Corner – Centre Street West Parking Lot (66 permits)

Qualified businesses located in the Coolidge Corner commercial district are eligible to receive an employee parking permit that allows parking in the unmetered Centre Street West parking lot. Holders of these permits are guaranteed a parking space in this lot. The terms of this permit are as follows:

Cost:  $78 / month + one time $25 administrative fee

Limits: 2 permits / business

Hours: 9 AM - 8 PM, Monday through Saturday
          Lot not available on Thursdays when Farmers Market is in session                                             
Renewal: Does not require annual renewal. Continuously billed on a quarterly basis                       
              (January, April, July, and October)

Because these commercial parking permits are hang tags they can be shared among employees! For more information contact Senior Clerk Secretary Josh Layne at 617-730-2177.
