In Arlington, overnight parking is not allowed on public streets. Only residents of private ways are allowed to park there. All other residents must park in a driveway or municipal lot with an overnight parking sticker. Recently, this town bylaw has raised concern from a new tenants rights group, which says the bylaw negatively impacts tenants. We sat down with Town Counsel Doug Heim to get into the nitty-gritty of the bylaw. Plus, we spoke with a tenants rights group who is advocating for residential street parking permits.
