Feb. 4 - The Milwaukee Police Department is simplifying the application process for specialized night parking permits by making them available at district stations. Starting on March 1, 2009 applicants can go to any Milwaukee Police district station to get “Night Shift Workers” and “Disabled Night Permits." Previously, applicants obtained permit applications at District Stations, but had to go to the Traffic Records Section at 49th and Lisbon to pick up their permits. Also effective March 1, permits will not be mailed to applicants after they apply at the District Station. These permits will be immediately issued at the District Station upon verification. Each of these permits is described below. Permit holders are reminded that they must still obey odd/even parking regulations.

NIGHT SHIFT WORKERS – Anyone employed as a Late Shift (Night Shift) Worker and is unable to find off street parking or employer does not provide parking, are eligible for this permit. Only one permit is available to each Night Shift Worker. Benefits for this permit are the same as those who purchase the Quarterly/Annual Night Parking Permits.

DISABLED NIGHT PERMITS - These permits are available to anyone with a Permanent Disability. (Temporary Disabled Individuals are not eligible). Only one Disabled Night Permit available per Disabled Individual. Benefits for this permit are the same as those who purchase the Quarterly/Annual Night Parking Permits.
