The City Clerk's office issues Temporary Accessible Parking Placards for periods of up to 90 days.

If you have a qualifying temporary disability you may be eligible for a disabled parking placard.

New regulations will no longer allow a person with a accessible parking placard to automatically qualify for meter-exempt parking in cities and municipalities.

Temporary Accessible Parking Placards are limited to one per person. Placards are only valid until the expiration date indicated on the placard. Failure to properly display a parking placard when utilizing a designated disabled parking space may result in a fine.

• Temporary Accessible Parking Parking Application Form

• Forms are available for Accessible Parking Placards for six months and longer through the Illinois Secretary of State's office and at the Illinois Drivers' service facilities. Search for a nearby Drivers' service facility.
• A physician must fill out the application and list a diagnosis related to one of the conditions listed on the application.  "Cannot walk 200 feet without stopping to rest" is no longer a qualifying disability unless it is related to one of the conditions listed. Illinois Department of Motor Vehicles persons with disabilities publications & form. These forms must be mailed to The State of Illinois Secretary of State office at 501 S. 2nd Street Springfield, IL 62756.
• RESERVED PARKING SPACE APPLICATION
  (FOR EVANSTON RESIDENTS WITH DISABILITIES) The City of Evanston recognizes that there are different levels of mobility limitations. A program to assist residents with the most severe limitations has been created to provide a reserved on-street parking space for the exclusive use of the resident with disabilities. The program is designed for users of wheelchairs; however, other residents who may use walkers, have artificial limbs, or have disabilities that place limits on walking may apply and will be approved if all the guidelines of the program are met. The program differs from those sponsored by the State of Illinois; the permit issued by the City of Evanston is the only permit that allows just the registered vehicle to park in the reserved space. Disabled placards or plates issued by the Secretary of State are not honored in this space without a permit.
