Street parking permits for CAL

<p>does anyone know where to go to obtain the area parking permit stickers for berkeley? I'd prefer to do that instead of paying $100/month for garage parking.</p>

<p>hmm does anyone on this board actually have one? Is it difficult to obtain?</p>

<p>100 bucks a month? are you kidding? oh wow</p>

<p>You have to be a Berkeley resident (the dorms don’t count), then register your car at the DMV under that address. I believe the cost is $30 for six months and you’ll have the ability to park in a select area around your place of residence.</p>

<p>If the car is not in your name, the owner might have to fax a letter giving permission to register it at your address. You also must provide proof of residence (apartment lease, electric bill, etc.)</p>
