Program Overview

The College Terrace neighborhood has historically been affected by large amounts of non-neighborhood traffic and parking.  Residents continue to suffer from a longstanding and growing problem with daytime and night time parking of students and employees of the university and other nearby employers who regularly park on neighborhood streets to avoid the cost of parking permits or because of convenience. As a condition of approval for Stanford's 2000 General Use Permit, $100,000 was provided to the City to support a Residential Parking Permit Program in College Terrace neighborhood, that is revenue neutral to the City's general fund.
