MISSION STATEMENT
The Mission of the Clarksville Parking Commission is to provide, maintain and operate adequate, high-quality, customer-focused public parking and encourage economic growth for the benefit of the residents, businesses and visitors of Clarksville.
Responsible for the operation and management of city-owned on and off-street parking facilities. Meter maintenance, construction parking permits, hang-tag applications.
CHANGES EFFECTIVE TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8TH, 2020
Effective Tuesday, September 8th, all meter sensors will be deactivated and downtown Clarksville on-street parking will be a "pay to play" environment. A payment of 25 cents is required to activate the meter; this payment will get you 15 minutes of parking PLUS one courtesy hour. It is then $2 for each additional hour up to 4 hours (increased from the previous 3 hours limit). On-street metered spaces remain free after 5 pm on weekdays and all day Saturday and Sunday.
