Residential permit parking is coming to the 800 and 900 blocks of Russell. Please read the following blog for more information:

How do you get a Parking Permit?
Residents who completed the Residential Permit Parking Petition prior to April 8 will be mailed a Parking Permit application form. Those who did not complete the petition by that date can find the application form on the Public Works webpage:
https://www.nashville.gov/Portals/0/SiteContent/pw/docs/permits/Residential%20Parking%20Permit%20Application.pdf or at the Public Works Office. Submit the application for processing to Diane Marshall. Her contact Information: phone (615-880-2455), email (diane.marshall@nashville.gov), fax (615-880-2012).  You have the option of obtaining your permit from her office at Public Works, 570 S. 5th Street. 
 
When does it go into effect?
Public Works will install the Residential Permit Parking signs for the 800 and 900 blocks around April 25th.  Enforcement will not begin immediately.
 
What are the conditions of our Residential Permit Parking?

• Residential Permit Parking will be in effect 7 days/week with parking restricted from 7AM to 9PM (non-resident 2-hour parking will be allowed during this time.).
  
• Residents who live in the 800-900 blocks of Russell Street will be able to purchase a permit for $10. (Permits are free for residents over age 65.) 
  
• Two guest permits per household, valid for a calendar year, may be purchased for $10 each. The Parking Permit application form does not include information on these Guest Permits because they were only recently approved. 
  
• Lost resident or guest permits may be replaced for $5.
  
• The Residential Permit Parking Program is in 12.42.010-110 of the Municipal Code

 
Residential Permit Parking was proposed because the residents on the 800 and 900 blocks of Russell Street were experiencing a scarcity of on-street parking and because off-street parking is not available for many.

The proposal was approved by the Traffic and Parking Commission on April 8, 2019. ​
