Vancouver considers charging up to $1,000 for parking permits for some new vehicles
VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) – Proposed changes aimed at reducing pollution in Vancouver could see some drivers forced to pay an annual climate change tax, on top of their insurance.
The city’s “Climate Emergency Parking Program” proposes Vancouverites who own a 2023 or newer “high-polluting” vehicle — described as a gas-powered luxury sports car, large SUV or full-size pickup truck — would be charged $1,000 per year to get a residential parking permit.
Owners of 2023 or newer vehicles deemed “moderately polluting” — gas-powered sporty sedans or higher efficiency small SUVS — would have to pay $500 for the same permit.
