For flexibility, you can list 3 vehicles on a permit, but the permit can only be used by 1 car for 1 parking space at a time.

CBDEP can be used in any space at the Ken Smith property or any metered space at Cottage Place Lots to provide unlimited parking. The hangtag permit must be displayed on the rearview mirror.  CBDEP does not guarantee availability of a parking space.
