Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to transportation; eliminating 24-hour grace period to clear disability parking spaces of obstructions; amending Minnesota Statutes 2022, section 169.346, subdivision 2a.

AI Summary

This bill eliminates the 24-hour grace period for owners or managers to clear disability parking spaces of obstructions, such as plowed snow, merchandise, or similar obstacles. The existing law required a warning from a peace officer before the owner or manager could be found guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a fine of up to $500. The proposed change removes the 24-hour grace period and the requirement for a warning, making the owner or manager responsible for ensuring the parking space and associated access aisle are kept free of obstruction at all times.
