How do I get Residential Permit Parking for my neighborhood?
The Baltimore Residential Parking Program (RPP) began in 1979 in an effort to address the specific needs of residents in city neighborhoods where the demand for on-street parking was considered to be greatest. Participating neighborhoods elect to do so through application by petition to the City of Baltimore through the Parking Authority of Baltimore City.
