Can you explain what a "parking permit" means.  I have not heard of parking 
permits being issued in the Tuolumne Meadows area, whether you're staying in 
the tent cabins or backpacking and leaving a car in Tuolumne Meadows, in such 
areas as along the dirt road past the Lembert Dome parking lot, or in a couple 
of backpacker parking lots, or along the Tioga Road.   I may have misread the 
postings.

concerning parking in Yosemite, if you have a tent cabin, you will get 
a parking permit.  if you decide not to take the tent cabin, i'd 
recommend parking in Lee Vining or Mammoth and taking the YARTS shuttle 
into Yosemite.  You won't have a car inside the park, which means you 
will have to rely on public transportation, but its better than 
worrying all weekend about getting a ticket or worrying about where to 
park.

of course, if you need the car to shuttle hikers around and drive into 
town to buy supplies or eat at a resuarant or whatever they will want 
to do, the YARTS shuttle is not a good idea.
