Parking Permit Applications

The purpose of issuing Temporary Parking Bay Reservations is to cater for short-term works which have an impact in a specific location. This may include building demolition or constructions, other forms of construction or maintenance work, promotions for specific events/businesses, etc.

Reservation of bays is not intended to provide convenient parking, but to facilitate access to a vehicle or equipment which may be used consistently, or very regularly, in the pursuit of the applicant’s business.

Council has a Temporary Parking Permit that is available for funeral homes located throughout Shepparton, Kialla and Mooroopna.

These permits are available to funeral homes, offering up to 10 permits per business allowing up to 10 bay/vehicles to be reserved for parking during a funeral service.
