Parking Placard Program

The Parking Placard Program issues placards to residents across the NWT.  The placard is issued to the person, not the vehicle.  It allows the registered user to park any car they are using in specially identified parking spots.  NWT parking placards may be used in any Province or Territory across Canada.

In order to receive a parking placard, the individual must complete a Parking Placard Application form with their Doctor or Nurse Practitioner, and return it to the Council office.  The individual must also sign a form acknowledging that they have received, read, and understood the rules governing the use of the parking placard.

Permanent Placards all expire April 30th of even years (2012, 2014…).  Renewal forms are sent to all holders in the mail at the start of March.

Temporary Placard expiry dates are determined by the Health Care Professional.  If a temporary placard holder still needs the placard after expiry they must submit a new application.

Organizations may apply for placards if they are transporting clients with disabilities regularly.
