Richmond enforces residential parking permit (RPP) zones in neighborhoods like the Fan, Museum District, and VCU perimeter, with 2-hour limits for non-permit vehicles between 8 AM and 5 PM on weekdays.
Richmond City Code Chapter 27 authorizes the Department of Public Works to designate RPP zones. Annual permits cost 25 dollars for the first vehicle and 35 dollars for additional vehicles at the same address. Visitor passes are available. Street sweeping signs must be obeyed or the vehicle will be ticketed and relocated. Meter parking downtown runs 8 AM to 6 PM Monday through Saturday. Expired meter tickets are 25 dollars; RPP violations are 40 dollars.
Unpaid tickets accrue late fees and can trigger booting after three or more delinquent citations. Unregistered out-of-state vehicles can be cited under VA Code 46.2-662 after 30 days.
