ATTENTION NYCHA PARKING PERMIT HOLDERS:

We understand there are delays in employees receiving their new 2023/2024 hangtags.  They are on their way.  If you have an expired permit, please be sure to keep it visible in the meantime.  If you are an employee with a new hangtag, your vehicle will not be enforced as long as you are parked in an employee parking lot and your vehicle has not changed.  Thank you for your patience during this time.

Early renewal has begun!  Please log in today to renew!  Applications with the renewal codes will be mailed in March.

  1. Where can I park?

    Parking lots at various Developments are available for residents and non-residents. Please visit the Find a Parking Lot page for locations.

  2. What is the difference between reserved and non-reserved parking?

    If you have a space at a reserved lot, you must park in your assigned space. Parking at non-reserved lots is on a first-come, first served basis; you may park anywhere in your assigned lot.

  3. Why does my parking permit expire on April 30th if it has not been 12 months from the day I purchased it?

    The term for parking permits is May 1st through April 30th of the following year. All parking permits for the current term expire on April 30th, regardless of when you received your permit. Please note there is no pro-ration of fees for applicants who apply and receive a permit after May 1st. NYCHA does not grant refunds of parking fees after the issuance of a Parking Permit.

  4. Who is responsible for maintenance issues at the parking facility where I park?

    LAZ Parking does not handle the physical aspects or maintenance of the parking facilities ( i.e. lighting, striping, garbage, drainage, issues with locks ). Any questions relating to the physical conditions of the lot should be directed to the site's designated NYCHA Property Manager.

  5. What types of parking facilities are available?

    Please visit the Parking Permits page for information and instructions on how to apply for a permit.

  6. How do I apply for a parking permit?

    Please visit the Parking Permits page for information and instructions on how to apply for a permit.

  7. I know someone who no longer uses their NYCHA parking permit. Can I use his/her parking permit?

    No; parking permits are registered for a single vehicle. If you are using a parking permit that is not attached to the vehicle that was registered for said permit, you are in violation of the NYCHA Parking Rules.

  8. What should I do if my permit is lost, stolen, or damaged?

    You should apply for a replacement permit. Please submit an application for a replacement permit. See the Parking Permits page for more details.

  9. What do I do if someone is parked in my reserved space?

    During business hours, please contact your development's Site Manager, who is authorized to initiate the towing of unauthorized vehicles. You may also contact the Unauthorized Vehicle Line at (212) 967-4875 to report the incident. We use these reports to set our enforcement schedule and to assist permit holders with unauthorized parkers.

  10. How do I appeal a parking citation/tow?

    Please send written correspondence to LAZ Parking. Please see the Contact Us page for mailing information.

  11. What are the consequences of ignoring violations/citation notices?

    Ignoring violations results in the towing of your vehicle and your privilege to park at NYCHA parking facilities may be revoked.

  12. May I apply to park in a surface lot handicapped space as long as I have a state issued blue handicapped hangtag or license plate?

    Yes, please register your handicapped status when applying for the parking permit. Please see the Parking Permits page for more details on how to apply for a permit.

  13. What should I do if my vehicle is damaged at a NYCHA lot (collisions, potholes, etc.)?

    Parkers park at their own risk at NYCHA parking lots.

  14. How do NYCHA employees obtain a permit?
