Ward 4 Visitor Parking Pass (VPP)

Visitor Parking Pass

The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is continuing the Ward 4 Visitor Parking Pass (VPP) Pilot, effective December 1, 2008 to January 31, 2010. Each resident on a block zoned for Residential Permit Parking (RPP) was mailed a new Visitor Parking Pass. A random sample survey of Ward 4 residents indicated that the majority of residents consider the program a success and support its continuation.

In December 2007, DDOT launched the first one- year pilot in Ward 4. The pilot is intended to address the inconvenience to residents caused by having to obtain a new visitor parking permit each time a visitor is expected.

The Visitor Parking Pass allows visitor parking for periods longer than two hours on blocks zoned RPP within the resident's ANC boundaries during RPP hours; and is not tied to any particular vehicle or visitor.

The Visitor Parking Pass displays the resident's Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) and a unique ID number.

For Residents

Each Ward 4 household on a RPP block is eligible for one (1) Visitor Parking Pass (VPP). Eligible residents not in receipt of a VPP may make a request by calling DDOT at (202) 671-2333. The addition of the ANC designation to Zone 4 RPP signs has no impact on Zone 4 RPP permit holders. Residents should remind guests to return the VPP at the end of their visit.

Residents also should remember that the Visitor Parking Pass does not provide an exemption to the Registration of Out-of-State Automobiles (ROSA) requirement that vehicles must be registered in the District within 30 days of residency. A regular visitor during the evening hours may need to obtain a ROSA parking exemption from the Department of Motor Vehicles. For more information regarding ROSA, visit the Department of Motor Vehicles website at dmv.dc.gov or call 311.

DDOT is currently conducting a survey to determine your level of satisfaction with the Visitor Parking Pass Pilot. Please take a minute to offer your feedback.

For Visitors

Visitors to Ward 4 households should display the Visitor Parking Pass (VPP) on the driver's side of the dashboard. At the end of the visit, visitors should return the VPP to the resident. The VPP is valid when properly displayed in a vehicle that is parked on a Residential Permit Parking (RPP) block and the ANC on the street sign matches the ANC on the Visitor Pass.

Conditions for Use of Visitor Parking Pass

  • The  Visitor Parking Pass (VPP) may be used, without time or frequency limitations, by visitors, in-home care providers, contractors, etc.
  • VPP does not provide an exemption from the Registration of Out-of-State Automobiles (ROSA) requirement to register a vehicle in the District of Columbia within 30 days of residency.
  • Each household participating in the Residential Permit Parking (RPP) program in Ward 4 is eligible to receive one VPP.
  • The VPP is valid only within the ANC shown as the first two characters of the unique VPP ID number. Refer to the Ward 4 ANC maps or RPP signs, to determine the ANC boundary in which the Pass is valid.
  • The VPP must be displayed on the driver’s side of the dashboard.
  • The VPP is not to be used as a substitute for an RPP sticker on a vehicle owned by a resident of the household, and will not exempt any vehicle from complying with the requirement to be registered in the District within 30 days of residency.
  • The VPP may not be sold or distributed for personal gain.
  • Vehicles bearing an invalid VPP will be subject to RPP civil infractions.
  • Duplication, sale or distribution of the VPP is strictly prohibited. Violators are subject to a $300 fine.
