A common question arose this week among Benbrook residents seeking to renew a handicap placard or plate. The short answer is yes, it can be renewed locally, just not at City Hall.
Handicap placards and plates are handled through the county tax office, not the city. The closest option for Benbrook residents is the Tarrant County Sub-Courthouse and Tax Assessor’s Office, located on Granbury Road in southwest Fort Worth. Several residents shared that the process is quick and straightforward, often with short wait times.
To renew, bring a valid ID and your existing handicap placard or plates. If you are applying for a new placard or plate, a completed form from your doctor is required before heading to the tax office. This process is separate from vehicle registration or inspections.
Residents who called ahead confirmed the Granbury Road office is the correct and most convenient location. For anyone putting it off, neighbors agree it is an easy errand once you know where to go.
