Fair Lawn Police Department
Parking Permit Information

Borough Ordinance requires all vehicles that are parked at either of the train station lots, the DPW/commuter bus parking lot, or Eldorado Village, Knollcroft Gardens, Bergen Properties, Fair Lawn Park Estates, or Hollow Run parking areas display a valid permit for the specific parking area. (For the DPW/commuter bus parking lot only, daily parking meters can be used, which do not require a permit)

The parking lots/areas are checked every weekday (excluding holidays) and violators are ticketed. All permits expire on December 31 and must be renewed annually. The current permit fee schedule, including the quarterly pro-rated fees, are listed below. The purchase of a parking permit does not guarantee an available parking space. Spaces are on a first come, first served basis. People wishing to renew a permit can do it in two ways. The application form could be printed from your home computer, completed at your convenience, and mailed with a self addressed-stamped envelope with a check for the appropriate fee (made out to The Borough of Fair Lawn) to the Fair Lawn Police Department Records Bureau (8-01 Fair Lawn Avenue, Fair Lawn, NJ 07410). Your parking permit would then be issued and mailed to you.

If you need a parking permit and it is the first time you are purchasing one, you will need to apply in person with your driver's license, vehicle registration, and up-to-date identification that shows your correct address. (For apartment parking areas, please bring a copy of your lease.) If you must apply in person, the form could be printed out on a home computer and completed before you get to the municipal building. In person permit sales are conducted Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Tuesday and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. (excluding holidays) at the Fair Lawn Police Department's Records Bureau.
