Get Resident Only Permit

Permit parking in the City of Fullerton is available to regulate and manage residential on-street parking problems associated with student parking. Although the City recognizes it is desirable to allow residents to park legally on any public street, it also recognizes the inconvenience that repetitive and long-term parking has on the affected residents. The goal is to create fair and equitable usage of residential on-street parking areas.
