Parking Reservations
Do you want to close a parking space to public use? For just one day or maybe several days?
Step 1: Apply for a Reservation
Contact Parking Services at parking@cityofvancouver.us or 360-487-8650. Please allow 7-21 business days for the application to be processed.
- When will the parking spaces be closed? Provide dates and times.
- How many parking spaces will be closed?
- Which spaces? Where are they? Be as specific as possible.
- What is the purpose? Construction, Special Event, Move, etc.
- What is the address of the related activity?
Step 2: Pay the Fee
Fees are assessed per parking space per day, including weekends, and apply to all metered, pay station, signed and unmarked parking spaces.
Along with the daily rate, a $45 administrative fee is assessed.
Step 3: Notify Adjacent Businesses
Provide written or in-person notification to each business adjacent to the closed parking spaces.
Step 4: Close the Parking Space
- Meter hood bags are just one way to close parking spaces to public use. Staff will work with you to identify the best way.
- Note date and time on posted closure, take a picture of it and forward it to parking@cityofvancouver.us.
