How do I get a Temporary or Permanent Parking Permit for Disabled Persons?


New York State requires that residents obtain a Parking Permit for Disabled Persons (hang tag) from the Town in which they reside. 

*** Please note that License Plates for Disabled Persons are only available from the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles. *** 

*** There is no charge for Parking Permits for Disabled Persons, and New York State allows you to have one or two. ***

You will need the following two items for temporary or permanent permits:

1. A completed New York State Department of Motor Vehicles Application for a Parking Permit or License Plates, for Persons with Severe Disabilities

*** Please make sure the form is complete, and includes signatures by both you and your doctor. 

2. Your Driver's License

  • Please include a photocopy of your Driver's License if you are submitting your request by drop-off, mail, or email

Options for submittal:

In person:

  • Town Hall, located at 323 Charlton Road, Ballston Spa, NY 12020 - come to the Town Clerk's window Monday - Friday, 8 am to 4 pm

By drop-off:

  • Drop the completed form with a photocopy of your Driver's License in the gray, locked mailbox at the rear of Town Hall that is labeled "Town Payment."
  • Please indicate if you would like one or two tags and if you would like to pick them up or have them mailed to you.  

By mail:

  • Mail the completed form with a photocopy of your Driver's License to: Town of Ballston, P.O. Box 67, Burnt Hills, NY 12027.

Please Note:

Temporary Parking Permits for Disabled Persons: 

  • Are valid for the time period indicated on the application form by your doctor. If you require an extension, you will need a new completed application form from your doctor. Please follow the above to obtain new tags.

Permanent Parking Permits for Disabled Persons: 

  • Are valid for five years. Once we have your completed application form on file, you do not need to obtain a new one from your doctor for renewal. You may renew in person, by phone or by email.
