What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, a person with a disability that limits or impairs the ability to walk may apply for and obtain from the Department of Transportation special motor vehicle registration plates (special disabled plates) or a special identification card (disabled parking card) entitling a motor vehicle used by the person to certain parking privileges, including parking in spaces reserved for such vehicles. Current law also permits, with certain exceptions, state and local highway authorities to prohibit or restrict the stopping, standing, or parking of vehicles on highways under their jurisdictions.
Under this bill, a municipality may adopt an ordinance allowing the municipality to reserve parking spaces on highways (streets) for persons: 1) whose residences abut the street; 2) who own vehicles with special disabled plates or have been issued disabled parking cards; and 3) who have been issued permits by the municipality authorizing parking in these reserved parking spaces. The municipality may charge a fee for issuing a permit authorizing parking in these reserved spaces. The municipality may prohibit any vehicle other than a vehicle owned by the person issued a parking permit for a designated reserved parking space from parking, stopping, or standing in that reserved parking space. The municipality must erect and maintain official traffic signs or markers indicating any parking prohibition or restriction imposed by the ordinance.
