Fees increase for parking permits

If you’re a resident looking to get a parking permit for a commuter lot in town, you’ll be paying 5% more than last year.


Parking Services Director Allen Corry said last week that despite the increase, Greenwich’s prices are still considered low compared to neighboring towns.

With the increase, permits for Island Beach, Horseneck and Town Hall parking lots will cost $279 for the year, as will all other outdoor train station parking permits in town. Permitted parking in the West End lot in Old Greenwich, behind CVS, will cost $191. Indoor parking at Greenwich Plaza is going up to $488.
