I am a tenant in the harbor, do I get a discounted Long Term Parking Permit? How can I purchase it online?

Tenants in the harbor receive two discounted Long Term Parking Permits at $100 each.

If you'd like to purchase your permit through the online portal, you will need the account number attached to the boat that is in the harbor. You can find your account number on your monthly bill or call the office at (907)235-3160.

There is no discount on the Seasonal Fee Pay Permits for tenants.

What is the difference between the Long Term Parking Permit and the Seasonal Fee-Pay Parking Permit?

  • Long Term Parking Permits are for people storing vehicles on the spit: they let you park for more than 7 days at a time, between January 1st and December 31st of the same year in any lot that allows a Long Term Parking Permit.

How long can I leave my trailer on the spit for?

Boat trailers can park for up to 7 calendar days at no cost in designated trailer parking areas. Trailers must leave City property for a minimum of 24 hours before returning to the trailer parking areas.
