Take a Holiday from Parking Restrictions
11/06/2008 - By PASADENA IN FOCUS More than 1,200 parking meters in Pasadena’s busiest business/shopping districts help ensure that you’ll get a convenient spot when you need one.
The meters are enforced in Old Pasadena and the West Gateway area seven days a week, and Monday through Saturday near the Civic Center and on South Lake Avenue. (Read nearby signs and the meters themselves for specific operating hours.)
Everybody gets a break on nine meter holidays when parking enforcement officers are off-duty. Park free on the following holidays:
• New Year’s Day
• Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
• Presidents’ Day
• Memorial Day
• Fourth of July
• Labor Day
• Veterans Day
• Thanksgiving
• Christmas
Overnight parking restrictions are in full effect during many of these holidays, so be sure you and your guests have your permits in place! However, overnight parking is allowed without a permit from 2 a.m. Dec. 20 to 6 a.m. Jan. 2 to accommodate guests.
