Coronavirus: Long Beach extends suspension of street sweeping tickets through May 1 - Long Beach Press Telegram

Long Beach has extended its suspension of street sweeping tickets through May 1, officials announced Friday evening, March 27.

The city has also expanded the number of parking lots where residents can apply for a free permit to park while the current stay-at-home order is in effect to prevent the further spread of the novel coronavirus.

“We are working to provide more parking relief and options for residents and these new lots should help more people across the city,” Mayor Robert Garcia said in a statement. “If you live in a parking-impacted area, please take advantage of this program so the city can clean local streets for health and safety reasons.”

The new parking lots where residents can apply for a permit are:

• Brewitt Library, 4036 E Anaheim St.;
• Burnett Library, 560 E Hill St.;
• Dana Library, 3680 Atlantic Ave.;
• Mark Twain Library, 1401 E Anaheim St.; and
• Michelle Obama Library, 5870 Atlantic Ave.

Residents can also still apply for permits at the previously announced lots and garages, which are:

• Granada Beach Lot, 5100 E. Ocean Blvd.;
• Junipero Beach Lot, 2100 E. Ocean Blvd.;
• Belmont Beach Lot, 3998 E. Allin St.;
• City Place Garage A, 50 W. Sixth St.;
• City Place Garage B, 50 E. Fifth St.;
• City Place Garage C, 50 E. Third St.;
• Pike Garage, 65 Cedar Ave.;
• Aquarium Garage, 99 Aquarium Way; and
• Terrace Theater Garage, 300 E. Ocean Blvd.

Garcia has said street sweeping will continue, even while residents are ordered to stay at home, because it ensures streets and gutters can remain clear to prevent flooding.

Residents interested in a free parking permit can email longbeach@lazparking.com to receive an application. Once completed and returned, a permit providing access to the location of their choice (if not already full) will be mailed to their home.

Passes will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
