Temporary Parking Pass | ||||||
In Clarington, residents and visitors may request a temporary parking pass for up to 14 days per calendar year, per licence plate. This is to accommodate last-minute visitors and overnight guests. On-street parking permits for longer durations, and more permanent parking solutions (weekly or monthly) are available for application and review in our office based on parking availability on the street. We strive to accommodate and meet the parking needs of our residents. We also need to create a balance so that our roads are passable, safe and shared by both vehicles and pedestrians. Terms and conditionsThis online registration system will allow you the privilege to park for longer than three hours at a time, and overnight during the hours of 3 and 5 a.m. While the temporary parking pass grants you permission to park on Municipal streets within the prescribed time frames, you are not exempt from all other portions of our Traffic By-Law. You are required to remove your vehicles from the street during a winter storm to allow snowplows access to clear the snow.
Additionally, we will not approve temporary parking pass requests when tickets have been issued prior to the request. Standard procedures for ticket dispute resolution apply, and appointments can be set up by calling 905-623-3379 ext. 2105, Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. |

Winter parking | ||||||
Parking on the street in the winter months can interrupt or prevent effective snow clearing operations. Snow plow operators clear snow as close to the curb as possible (or end of travelled portion of roadway where no curb exists), but road obstructions, like parked vehicles, prevent this task from being completed.
If you park on the street and interfere with snow clearing operations, your vehicle may be ticketed and towed. Parking on the street during a snow event can slow down snow clearing operations, and in some cases, it can stop all snow clearing on that street. |

Pay a parking ticket | ||||||
To pay a parking ticket, choose one of the three methods below:
|
||||||
Dispute a ticket | ||||||
If you receive a parking ticket infraction, you have the option to schedule a First Attendance appointment to dispute your ticket within 15 days of issuance. This option is by appointment only and takes place at the Municipal Law Enforcement Office located at 2611 Trulls Road in Courtice. If you or your agent would like to meet with a First Attendance Administrator to dispute or discuss your ticket, you must book an appointment by calling 905-623-3379 ext. 2105. If you have scheduled an appointment, do not pay your parking violation until the First Attendance Administrator makes a decision on your case. Payment made before a scheduled screening will void your review because your case will be considered resolved, and refunds will not be issued. This option is a legislated process and is the only way to dispute your parking ticket infraction. Please contact the Municipal Law Enforcement office for any parking-related concerns or questions. |

School zone safety |

Parking Enforcement Officers routinely patrol schools to enforce parking regulations. Parents should park safely at schools and obey 'No Parking' and 'No Stopping' signs. These areas are usually located on either side of the street near schools and must be clear to provide visibility for motorists and students. Leave bus stops for buses, and fire routes for emergency vehicles.

Boulevard parking near an intersection |
