aCCESSIBLE pARKING pERMIT

The Parking Permit Program issues permits to residents across the NWT. The permit 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 permits may be used in any Province or Territory across Canada.

In order to receive a parking permit, the individual must complete a Parking Permit 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 permit.

Permanent Permits all expire April 30th of even years (2024, 2026 etc.). Renewal forms are sent to all holders in the mail in March when production is complete on the new cards.

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

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

From 2020-2024 there were over 950 parking permits issued throughout the NWT.
