PARKING RESTRICTION SIGN PROGRAM 
Residents may request parking restriction signs adjacent to their property through a petition process to address 
excessive or obstructive on-street parking on public roadways. Private streets are not eligible for this program.  The 
restriction applies to an entire side of a block or street segment, contiguous from intersection to intersection.  No 
partial block installations are permitted.   
To begin the process for requesting No Parking signs through the El Mirage Engineering Division, please read, 
complete and return the form on page 2 to the City in person or via mail to the address listed on page 2.  Any 
questions regarding the application can be directed to the Engineering Division at (623) 876-2974 or 
engineering@elmirageaz.gov.    
PROCESS 
•
Engineering staff will create and send the requestor a petition with a description of the type and times of
the restriction, and a map showing the proposed boundary area.
•
The requestor will circulate the petition to the properties within the area for signatures.
•
A minimum of 80% of the properties within the petition boundary must sign the petition and indicate "YES"
for the request to be completed.  Signatures from an owner or an occupant are acceptable. Occupants are
responsible for notifying the owner(s).  If the area contains an HOA common area, then the HOA Board
must gain approval through board action documented and provided in the official meeting minutes.
•
The original petition form must be returned in person or mailed to the City.
•
The Engineering staff will present the request to City Council.  If approved by Council, all costs associated
with the installation of the signs shall be the sole responsibility of the petitioning residents.  The exact
number and locations of the parking signs will be determined by City staff.  Typical sign spacing is 100-
250 feet.
OPTIONS 
The requestor may pursue any of the below parking restriction sign options.  These are in effect at all times or, if 
adjacent to a school, times that coincide with the school's hours of operation.  
NOTES 
•
Restrictions apply to all vehicles, including those owned by residents and their guests.
•
Owners or occupants must trim or possibly remove overgrown vegetation to provide sign visibility.
•
Petitions must be completed and returned to the City within three months.  Once the petition is returned,
verified and approved by City Council, the signs will be installed.  Installation may take up to 90 days from
approval.
•
Parking restrictions cannot be considered for removal for at least one year after installation.  The process
to remove restrictions follows the same petition requirements. All costs associated with the removal of the
signs shall be the sole responsibility of the petioning residents.
