Events and Other Permits

Cyclists

The Santa Clara County Special Event Permit System (SEPS) allows event sponsors to apply online for a permit for their event.   Sponsors can also learn about the event permitting process, types of events, and fees.   County residents may subscribe to receive notices when special events such as bike races or walking events are scheduled on County-operated roads.

The Encroachment Permit Application may be downloaded using the link near the bottom of this page.

Now, Santa Clara County residents will obtain their Residential Parking Pass permits from the County's Roads and Airports Department at 101 Skyport Drive, San Jose, CA 95110, between 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM on Monday, Tuesday or Thursday.  For additional parking pass information, please review the letter sent to Santa Clara residents,  issued Dec 29, 2011.  Your questions can be directed to permit staff at 408-573-2475.
