Beach & Resident Stickers
How to Obtain a Beach or Resident Parking Sticker

Resident Parking and Beach Stickers are available at the Town Clerks office during regular business hours. Stickers expire on May 31st each year and they must be renewed annually.

To purchase a sticker you must:

1.
Show your car registration, even if you have had a sticker in the past. If the registration does not have a Manchester address, you will be required to show proof of residence. Owners of leased vehicles need to show the registration plus a leasing agreement with their name on it
2.
Be listed in the annual street listing which is compiled from census returns. If you are not listed in the street listing, you will be asked to fill out a census form with the required information.

Parking Sticker Fees

Beach stickers, which include two walk-on passes for Singing Beach, cost $25.00. (The Senior Citizen rate for those 65 and over is $10.00.)

Resident parking stickers, which do not allow beach parking, are free.
