Alaska SB273 waives municipal fees for disabled veterans' home modifications.

Alaska SB273 mandates that municipalities waive fees for building, permits, and inspections related to home modifications for disabled veterans. A disabled veteran is defined as someone who served in the U.S. armed forces, National Guard, or reserve units and has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits major life activities. The veteran or their caretaker must provide proof of veteran status and attest that the modifications are necessary to accommodate the disability. The municipality decides what constitutes adequate proof of veteran status.
