It's $10 for the first permit, $15 for the second, $20 for the third and $25 for the fourth within the same calendar year. Residents are only allowed four garage sales per year.

City officials also reminded residents to be aware of their neighborhood’s weekly Public Service Days, such as trash pick up, when hosting sales, as this will pose parking constraints and other problems for customers who may not know of that neighborhood’s Public Service day.
