On November 15, 2021, the City Council voted to extend the Downtown Whitefish Parking Permit Pilot Program. The program will run from December 1, 2021, through December 31, 2022. The cost of the program will be $20 per month, per license plate, per permit. A limited number of permits will be made available in downtown surface lots and on the third level of the Whitefish downtown parking structure. Public time-limited parking will continue to be available in the surface lots. Permits are valid Monday-Friday 6:00 am – 6:00 pm and can be used in any of the four lots provided, on a first-come first-serve basis.
Permits will be valid at the following parking lot locations:
- Public parking lot south of the Library (West side of lot)
- 1st and Spokane parking lot
- Uncovered lease parking of the Parking Garage
- 3rd Street and Central Avenue
Permit holders are encouraged to utilize spaces available in all designated locations prior to utilizing unlimited daytime parking.
Permits are on sale now through an online portal on the City of Whitefish website, https://www.cityofwhitefish.org/478/Online-Payments. Enforcement of the permit program will be through the city’s License Plate Recognition System mounted on the City’s parking
enforcement vehicle.
