The bill prohibits booting emergency vehicles, vehicles with occupants, tax-exempt vehicles, or vehicles parked less than 15 minutes past paid time. Violations of these rules are classified as a class 2 misdemeanor. The law directly affects property owners, booting service providers, and vehicle owners on private lots.
