    Town of The Blue Mountains Transitions to Digital-Only Parking Passes

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    The Town of The Blue Mountains would like to advise residents that beginning January 2025, parking passes will be issued only through the digital residential parking pass program, and physical hanging parking passes will no longer be issued or accepted.

    Residents are required to register for parking passes annually and must re-register their vehicle for 2025. Vehicle registration can be completed through the Town’s website or in person at Town Hall during regular business hours. To register, residents must provide a copy of the vehicle ownership and proof of residency. All residential property owners and residential tenants in the Town can register vehicles for free. Multiple vehicles, subject to proof of ownership, can be registered per resident.

    A grace period will be provided until February 3, 2025, for residents to register their vehicle licence plates. Also beginning January 2025, residents will now be able to register friends and family members for a digital temporary parking permit for $5 plus HST per day, for up to 14 days per calendar year.

    A parking pass allows residents of The Blue Mountains to park for free at any paid parking locations owned by the Town, including beaches, parks and trails. Please note that there is no paid parking in the downtown area, except for the Arthur Street lot across from the Post Office. Non-residents from neighbouring municipalities, including Meaford, Grey Highlands, Clearview, and Collingwood, can register for an annual parking pass for $100.00 plus HST.

    To learn more about parking in the Town of The Blue Mountains and to register your vehicle, please visit: www.thebluemountains.ca/parking.
