Quincy regulates on-street parking under its traffic ordinances and a resident permit system. Time limits are enforced daily; a vehicle that moves to an adjacent street resets position but not the daily chalk time. No overnight parking without a resident permit (1 AM–7 AM, 2-hour limit).
On-street time limits in Quincy are daily limits enforced by Parking Control Officers via tire chalking and license plate reading. Moving to a different spot on the same or adjacent street does not reset the daily limit. Overnight parking of more than two hours between 1:00 AM and 7:00 AM requires a Quincy Police Department Resident Parking Permit ($20/year, renewable annually). Permits are limited to vehicles registered at the address; no commercial vehicles qualify. Parking is also prohibited within 10 feet of a fire hydrant, in front of private driveways, and within 20 feet of an intersection.
Parking tickets issued for time limit and overnight violations. Illegally parked vehicles subject to towing at owner's expense.
