Kaunas City Council has extended the paid-parking area to a lot on Šiaurės prospektasE TAR. Decision No. T-520 of 15 September 2026, signed by mayor Visvaldas Matijošaitis, amends the council's Decision No. T-552 of 19 December 2023 on the local charge for using designated Kaunas parking places
E TAR, adding a paragraph to Chapter VI of the chargeable-places list
E TAR.
The added paragraph reads: the lot on Šiaurės pr. opposite building No. 5A and the adjoining territory next to the plot at Šiaurės pr. 5AE TAR. Chapter VI of the list is the green zone (Žalioji zona)
E TAR, so the new lot enters the chargeable list as a green-zone location
E TAR.
The green zone's charge regime applies to the new lotE TAR. Under the regulations, the charge in the green zone is collected on working days from 8:00 to 18:00
E TAR. The green-zone tariffs set out in the regulations apply, including the annual permit for green-zone lots and the multi-zone monthly, quarterly and annual permits covering the green zone; a ticket bought in the green zone is valid only in the green zone, while tickets from higher zones also cover it. Payment for parking beyond the paid time without moving the vehicle, or after an unpaid-charge notice, follows the generally applicable late-payment amounts for the green zone.
The generally applicable green-zone exemptions also cover the new lot: vehicles of disabled persons holding a parking card, pure electric vehicles with a special permit, and the other exempt categories under the regulations. Special resident permits are not issued for parking lots. The charge is not collected on national holidays or during the "Kauno miesto diena" festival, or on other dates set by separate council decision.
In practice, drivers using the lot opposite Šiaurės pr. 5A and the adjoining territory at Šiaurės pr. 5A now pay under the green-zone regime on working days from 8:00 to 18:00, while parking there outside those hours, on the exempted holidays and festival, or under a valid exemption or permit, remains free of the charge.
The legal basis of the charge scheme is the council's 2023 decision, whose regulations define the zones, tariffs, exemptions and the chargeable-places list that this decision extends by one lot.
Drivers using the lot opposite Šiaurės pr. 5A on working days between 8:00 and 18:00 should pay the green-zone charge or hold a valid multi-zone or annual permit.
