How do I obtain a handicapped parking permit or license plate?
A handicapped parking permit may be obtained for persons with a permanent or temporary disability. You do not have to be a driver. A registered owner of a vehicle may apply to get a handicapped parking permit issued in the name of the person with a disability regardless of the age; e.g. children with a qualifying disability, legally blind, etc. Handicapped parking permits are obtained from the Nassau County Office of the Physically Challenged located at 60 Charles Lindberg Boulevard, Uniondale, NY 11553 or by mail, telephone their offices at (516) 227-7399. Application forms are available for downloading on their website at: www.nassaucountyny.gov/agencies/OPC/index.html. Do NOT send your application or contact DMV for a handicapped parking permit.
