Latest version.
  • The provision of this Article shall be administered by the Department of Transportation with all permits only available to an RPPD allowable vehicle as defined in Section 82-5A-2 for an address location within the Residential Permit Parking District.

    (a)

    Permits/passes to allow parking during restricted hours of a Residential Permit Parking District shall be issued only in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph (b) below.

    (b)

    Permits, in the form of decals, will be available from the Department of Transportation. Decals shall be issued for a period of up to two years, one per vehicle with the expiration date as set forth on the decal. Decals may be renewed for additional two-year periods in the manner prescribed herein.

    (c)

    Temporary RPPD passes shall be issued to the affected residents in the temporary RPPD and shall be valid for a period of two years or until the construction project or other situation that caused the establishment of the temporary RPPD has ended, whichever occurs first. Passes may be renewed if the construction project or other situation that caused the establishment of the temporary RPPD is still in effect.

    Permits/passes shall be applied for in person, by mail, or by electronic means in accordance with procedures established by the Department of Transportation, and shall be accompanied by proof of payment of Fairfax County vehicle license to validate the applicant's residency in the District and proof of vehicle ownership or use of a vehicle for which the permit is requested. Vehicles that are exempted from the requirement of a Fairfax County vehicle license must submit the vehicle registration and two (2) proofs of residency that show current residence in the district. Acceptable proofs shall consist of the following:

    (1)

    Virginia driver's license.

    (2)

    Vehicle or personal property insurance policy.

    (3)

    Proof of payment of a security deposit or paid rent receipt.

    (4)

    Lease or mortgage documents.

    (5)

    Virginia voter registration.

    (6)

    Utility bill.

    A new resident of a District need show only one of the proofs of residency identified in subsection (c) of this Section and any current vehicle registration to be issued one 60-day nonrenewable new resident pass. Before expiration of same, the new resident shall comply with the provisions above in order to obtain a parking permit.

    Any person on active duty in the military service, absent from his state of residence or domicile solely by reason of compliance with military orders, may prove vehicle ownership by showing a current military identification and a current vehicle registration.

    Applications for renewal of permits/passes shall be processed in the same manner as an original permit application, except that an applicant who has a valid Fairfax County vehicle license which shows that such applicant continues to be a resident at the same address of the Residential Permit Parking District, may renew his or her permit/pass in accordance with the renewal procedures established by the Department of Transportation.

    If a current District resident purchases a vehicle, they will obtain a 60-day non- renewable pass to use until the temporary plates are replaced with permanent plates when presenting the temporary registration.

    (d)

    Decals shall be displayed in the lower left corner of the vehicle's rear window in such a way as to be clearly visible (see Section 82-5A-2 (d) for proper display provisions). Passes shall be displayed in such a way as to be entirely visible through the vehicle windshield (see Section 82-5A-2 (f) for proper display provisions).

    (e)

    Individual district permits/passes shall be identified by a different number. A valid permit/pass for one Residential Permit Parking District shall not entitle the permit/pass holder to park in any other such District.

    (f)

    An individual who continues to reside at the same address of the Residential Permit Parking District, upon disposing of a vehicle with a permit decal, may obtain a new decal for a replacement vehicle upon presentation of a Virginia vehicle registration or Fairfax County vehicle license for the replacement vehicle.

    (g)

    Decals and passes shall be removed from the vehicle upon moving from the District.

    (h)

    Decals and passes shall remain the property of Fairfax County and may be revoked without notice and must be surrendered on demand by the County.

    (i)

    Temporary RPPDs will be terminated by the Department of Transportation when the end of the construction project or other situation that caused the establishment of the temporary RPPD has ended. The Department of Transportation will notify the residents, by mail, of the termination of the temporary RPPD.
