Disability (Handicap) Parking

FEE EXEMPTION: Those who have a disability plate or display a disability placard are exempt from paying parking fees at metered street parking or in municipal lots, including the garage.

TIME LIMIT EXEMPTION: People who have a disability plate or display a disability placard are exempt from the time limits on a parking space, such as 15-minutes or one-hour only. However, this does not exempt plate or placard users from fines or towing when “No Parking” restrictions are in effect, such as during snow emergencies. (Massachusetts General Law c. 40 § 22A)
