Parking PassesBeginning the third weekend in April (17 & 18) Parks & Rec. will once again implement the $5 per vehicle parking fee for non-residents who wish to park in the Meadow Park parking lot on weekends and holidays. The parking fee will be enforced (violators will be towed) for the summer season beginning the third weekend in April, through the end of September. Residents of Lyons will not be required to pay the fee, as long as they utilize the resident of Lyons parking pass.
One free resident parking pass is available per household, a second pass may be obtained for $25, a third pass will be $45. Non-residents may purchase a season parking pass for a flat rate of $45 per vehicle. Resident parking stickers will be mailed following proof of residency being provided at Lyons Town Hall. The presentation of a Town of Lyons utility bill is all that is needed for proof of residency. Please be sure to ask for your parking pass when you stop in to pay your bill.
