Key things to know

• The four types cover every vehicle that should park in your community. A vehicle that fits none of them is subject to standard enforcement.

• When in doubt, a guest pass is the safest default for short-term situations. It's time-bound, tied to a resident, and visible to patrol.

• Do-Not-Tow entries last only until the expiration date you set, and ParkingPass doesn't remind you before they expire.
