The City of Cornwall no longer issues physical permits to be placed in the vehicle window. All permit privileges are now virtually tied to the vehicle(s) of the permit owner. Permits are registered electronically by plate numbers and it is no longer necessary to display a permit in your vehicle.

Parking permits are associated with the plate numbers and not transferable from person to person. However, they can be used for up to 3 different plates for multiple cars owned by the same permit holder if the plates are registered at the time of permit purchase.
