Residential Parking Permit Proposal

Would you like to see our neighborhood implement a residential parking permit program?

Due to the positive developments in East Walnut Hills, finding available parking spots has become a challenge for many residents, especially those who rely on street parking. A residential parking program should help solve some of these difficulties.

Facts about the program:

The program must be approved by at least 60% of the households in the district. Only one signature per house-hold allowed. You may sign the petition in favor of the program even if you do not intend to purchase a permit, or even if the program will be of little use for you personally (but may improve the quality of life for your neighbors).

Sign in favor now if you think you would like the program in the future.

If supported by the required percentage of households, parking zone signage would be determined after approval by City Council.

Streets being considered for implementation:

Business District:
5pm to 2am restriction

  • All Clayton
  • Moorman (Clayton to Taft)
  • Hackberry (Madison to Taft)
  • Burdette (East half)
  • All Myrtle
    o North side unrestricted
    o South side 24 hour restriction

Historical Area South of East McMillan:
7am to 5pm restriction

  • Grandview
  • Ashland
  • Upland

Permit availability:

  • A maximum of two resident permits per household can be purchased per year. The yearly permit costs $30 each. The half-year is $15.
  • Residents can purchase one full-time visitor pass for $30 per year or $15 per half-year.
  • An unlimited number of temporary visitor passes, valid for 2 weeks from the date of purchase, can be purchased for $5 each.
  • The resident permits and visitor passes are non-transferable.

The petition will be available during our Assembly Meeting, where neighbors will be able to answer questions about this proposal. If you cannot attend this meeting, please contact us to arrange signing the petition.

Get Your Free Tree Now!

Through the ReLeaf Program, the Cincinnati Parks Department has already given away almost 20,000 trees.

The annual ReLeaf program began in 1988 with a mission to provide trees for homeowners who either have lawns that are too narrow to be planted by Urban Forestry or for those with conflicting utility service structures. The program has expanded to include schools, community areas, and other public green spaces. New in 2020: backyard trees!

The Park Board’s Urban Forestry division works hard to bring each residential neighborhood up to 40% tree canopy coverage to help improve the impacts of air pollution, urban heat island effect, residential energy demands, and storm water management. A single large canopy deciduous tree, such as an oak or sycamore, can help control 400 to 1,000 gallons of stormwater through canopy interception. This benefits homeowners by reducing soil erosion and manage flooding from rainfall.

The program has blossomed to include community and school involvement and a more diverse tree species selection. The trees are planted in front yards of homes and schools to provide the beauty and energy-saving shade of a street tree without the costly conflicts with overhead utilities.

Eligible participants are provided a tree to plant in their front yard, providing the beauty and energy-saving benefits street trees bring. Interested in participating? Please follow this link for more information, tree selection and the application form..
