monthly parking customers


Explanation:
In the U.S., this is usually referred to as "monthly parking," and the best way to refer to the people who have monthly parking permits would be "monthly parking customers."

tenant/licensee


Explanation:
I'll enter the fray with this suggestion. These involve renting or letting car park space. I have found a lot of reference to standard rental terms related to car park spaces or single garages, and the like. Here are two references to a 'license agreement' and a 'rental agreement'.

http://www.portsmouthcc.gov.uk/living/4404.html
http://www.yourparkingspace.co.uk/files/ParkingSpaceRentalAg...

Michel's references to 'subscriber' are also good. I tried pretty hard and found some similar references for 'subscriptions', but settled on my suggestion since I found many more hits for references to rental language -- tenant and the like.

Pleasant hunting!
