- 2 hour free on-street parking;
- 15-minute on-street pay meters;
- Pay-and-display downtown lots (15 minute or hourly payment options); and
- Parking permits for use in downtown lots.
The downtown parking map shows the locations of each option.

Accessible parking spots are also available throughout the downtown.
The City offers inexpensive parking permits to encourage downtown business employees to park off the street. This will result in more on-street parking availability for customers.
A lane use permit is required if you plan to do any work downtown that will take up parking space(s) longer than the time allowed.
