Beginning April 1, 2012, overnight parking permits will be 
available for purchase online.

 

Overnight parking permits can be purchased online 
through the city’s website at: www.cityofsierramadre.com

 

Parking permits are required to park vehicles on city 
streets between 2:00AM and 5:00AM. Annual and temporary 
permits will be available online. The cost for an 
annual overnight parking permit is $80.00 per vehicle per 
year. Temporary overnight parking permits are also available 
for $1.00 per vehicle per day.

 

The new online service will accept payment by credit card 
or check. This service was created to make the purchase of 
overnight parking permits more convenient for the community 
and eliminate the requirement to visit the Police 
Department in person. All that is required is internet access 
and the ability to print the permit.

 

Residents and guests that do not have internet access can 
obtain permits at either City Hall or the Library during 
normal business hours. Off-hour requests must be processed 
online.

 

Overnight parking permits only allow vehicles to park on 
city streets overnight and do not exempt the vehicle owner 
from any other city municipal code or state vehicle code. 
For more information please contact the Sierra Madre Police 
Department at 626-355-1414.

Free on-air publicity for local events

 Sierra Madre’s new community radio station is now accepting scripts 
for Public Service Announcements (PSAs) about community events. 
PSAs will be broadcast on the air at no charge. The station operates 
24/7 and can be heard at 1630 on the AM dial.

 Any local non-profit or non-commercial organization can have 
their event information broadcast to the public on Sierra Madre 
Community Information Radio. This new radio station covers the city 
of Sierra Madre, plus surrounding areas of Pasadena, Arcadia, and 
Monrovia. 

In a nutshell, your event must:

• Benefit a non-commercial or non-profit entity
• Be open to the public
• Be of general interest to local citizens


Just 
write a Public Service Announcement that describes your 
event and e-mail it to radio@cityofsierramadre.com. 

CALIFORNIA WOMEN WIN THE 
VOTE! IT’S THE 1912 ELECTION!

 One hundred years ago, California was only the 
sixth state to grant women equal suffrage. California 
women campaigned in 1911 to get the vote, were successful 
in their struggles, and voted in the 1912 Presidential 
election for the first time. This historical event took place 
before women in the East were voting at all and before the 
Nineteenth Amendment giving voting rights to all U. S. 
citizens was ratified in 1920. 

 Jane Guthrie and Martha Wheelock, co-producers 
of Wild West Women Films, will

present their film “California Women Win the Vote” on 
Monday, April 9, at the meeting of the Arcadia Branch of 
the American Association of University Women (AAUW). 
The group meets at the Church of the Good Shepherd’s 
Jordan Hall, 400 W. Duarte Rd., Arcadia (SW corner of 
Duarte Rd. and Holly Ave.). Socializing begins at 6:30 pm 
with the program to follow at 7:00 pm.

 The free meeting is open to the public. History buffs 
and students in social studies classes are sure to appreciate 
the documentary film’s depiction of California women’s 
suffrage victory. For more information about the program 
or about AAUW membership, please call Tamara Kato at 
(626) 375-6756 or Patricia Dietrich at (626) 446-8437.
