The Department of Streets approves pavement markings to ensure that traffic moves safely and efficiently. If people are parking at the end of your legal driveway and blocking it, you can apply for a permit to paint a no-parking “X” on the pavement.
If you want to report a property owner who painted markings without approval, contact 311.
Cost
There is no cost for this permit. You will be responsible for painting the pavement marking.
