We have presented several proposed changes to their current policy. It is important to comply with the current DOT policy until our negotiations are resolved. Make sure your placard is always visible. One major point is that DOT may issue citations to inspectors who park utilizing their placard after 5:00 pm, Monday thru Friday, or anytime on the weekends. DOT has also stated that they will void all such citations if they receive a request from your Department. To view a copy of the current DOT policy on parking placards -- click here
