2031 Permanet Placards redisign.pdf

This file is a product specification document from the Illinois Secretary of State's Office for Persons with Disabilities Permanent and Temporary Parking Placards. The document displays sample placard designs for years 2031 and 2026, showing the front-facing layout of permanent parking placards that include security features, legal warnings, and a calendar month reference system. The placards contain standardized text warning that they are non-transferable, illegal to duplicate, and that unauthorized use may result in a $500 fine, driver's license suspension, and/or placard revocation. Each placard must be removed before the vehicle is in motion and requires the authorized holder to be present when entering or exiting the vehicle. The placards are printed under the authority of the State of Illinois, with a March 2024 production date and reference number VSD-200.16.

The file serves as a visual reference for the bid specification related to the printing services solicitation. The design incorporates security elements including character codes (such as "RPA RAM BEF NAJ GUA LUJ NUJ YAM CED VON TCO PES" for the 2031 placard) intended to prevent counterfeiting and unauthorized duplication. The placard specifications indicate the Secretary of State's office is seeking qualified printing vendors capable of producing secure parking documents with precise formatting, security features, and compliance with state disability parking regulations.
