Rail Commuters: Renew Your Westport Parking Permits

"Loss of or non-delivery of your renewal letter does not necessarily guarantee the ability to renew late."

This news release was issued Tuesday by the Westport Police Department:

June 30, 2014 is the expiration date for all Railroad Parking Permits. Renewal letters have been sent out to all permit holders.

For the first time, permit renewal letters have been sent by email to permit holders with a valid email address on file. If an email address is incorrect the permit holder will then receive a permit renewal letter by mail.

If you are a current permit holder but have not received a renewal letter by the end of this week, whether by email or by regular mail, you should contact the Railroad Parking Division.

Permits may be renewed in three ways. Permit holders can renew their permit online, by mail, or in person at Police Headquarters. Online renewals are also charged a 3.5 percent conveyance fee.

Online renewals and mail-in renewals will have their permits mailed to the address on record for that permit. Instructions for renewal are printed on the renewal letter.

Unfortunately, the Railroad Parking Division does not have the capability at this time to accept credit card payments by mail or at Police Headquarters. Credit cards may only be used for payment for online renewals.

Loss of or non-delivery of your renewal letter does not necessarily guarantee the ability to renew late and these cases are reviewed on an individual basis. Permits which are not renewed are subject to removal from the permit list.
