Hawaii HB1270 aims to increase the number of disability parking spots in public lots with over 25 spaces.

Hawaii HB1270 addresses the limited parking for disabled people and kupuna, particularly in high-traffic areas. The bill mandates that public and private entities with more than 25 parking spaces must increase the number of disability parking spots by at least one or 50%, whichever is greater. This change aims to improve access for disabled and elderly individuals, reducing their risk of injury from having to park farther away. Non-compliance with this requirement will result in fines ranging from $250 to $500 per offense, with each day of violation considered a separate offense.
