New 3a-6a Parking Exemptions Website

On December 15th, 2022, the Country Club Hills Police Department’s 3a-6a overnight parking exemptions (formally known as parking permission) website will have a new look. The new parking website will not only continue to allow residents to place their vehicle on the parking list online but will also allow them to create an account to keep track of their granted exemptions.

Please note that one of the changes with this new website is the compliance with the City Ordinance amendment passed in February of 2021 (6.2.02A) which states “A property owner overnight may park his or her vehicle in front of that owner’s house for three (3) days in any thirty (30) day period.”

Some important items to note is that your license plate entry must be correct and exact when typed in. Also, only 3 parking exemptions per vehicle for every 30 days is allowed, anything beyond that will receive a denial message upon submission. Starting December 15th, the 3a-6a parking exemptions submission page can be found on the CCH Police website or at https://cchills.dacracore360.com/resident/. For help with creating an account or using as a guest please hit the question mark on the login page. Thank you to our Community Members for your continued support and feel free to contact us for any questions/assistance 708-798-3191 x2.
