RICHMOND, Va. – New parking decals for residents of the Historic Jackson Ward Restricted Parking District are available for purchase and cost $25 each. The current parking permit expires August 31. Decals are limited to three per house or building address. Residents must display the permit on their cars to park for more than the designed time restriction.  Annual Visitor Passes, which cost $35 each, are also available and limited to two per house or building address. Annual Visitors Passes must be purchased at the same time the permit is purchased and are restricted to residential homeowners.
