Parking
There is a Zone 6 parking permit available to residents of the Ave House that costs $95 per year. To be eligible for the permit, your vehicle must be registered in your name and your driver’s license must list the Ave House as your home address. To apply for the permit, you can go to the Seattle Services Portal. This can be a complicated process, so we recommend waiting to apply until you are moved into the house and get help from other Ave guys. To avoid being ticketed in Zone 6, you can park on 16th, 17th, or 18th Avenue NE anywhere south of NE 50th Street for free.
