Palos Hills, IL – Residents are being reminded about overnight parking rules as the Palos Hills Police Department launches a new online portal allowing drivers to request permission for overnight street parking. The update was announced Tuesday on the department’s social media page.
According to the department, overnight parking requests can now be submitted through paloshillspolice.us/overnight-parking or by calling 708-598-2151. The system is intended to streamline requests for residents who need temporary approval to park on public streets during restricted hours.
According to city ordinance 10.08.040, no motor vehicle may be parked, stopped, or left standing on any public street, highway, or thoroughfare in Palos Hills between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m., regardless of whether the vehicle is attended or unattended. This rule applies every day of the week unless an overnight parking request is granted.
The department also highlighted a second ordinance, 10.08.030, which prohibits street parking whenever two inches or more of snow have accumulated. This restriction applies even if a resident has an overnight parking request on file, ensuring plow crews can clear roads safely during winter weather.
Officials emphasized the importance of following these rules to avoid citations and to maintain public safety during overnight hours and snow events. Residents who frequently host guests or face limited driveway space may benefit from the newly added online request option.
The police department encourages residents to review the updated guidelines and submit requests as needed.
