HB 1995 Hawaii House · 2026 Regular Session

RELATING TO PARKING FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES.

HB 1995 expands eligibility for disabled parking permits to include individuals who are blind or deaf, who were previously excluded under existing rules. The bill directly affects people with these specific disabilities by allowing them to apply for and receive the same parking permits as those with other mobility-related disabilities. Key provisions require state agencies to process applications for these permits without additional medical certification beyond what is required for other disability categories. This change modifies the current eligibility criteria to ensure consistent access to parking accommodations for all qualifying individuals. The bill is currently in committee referral after its initial introduction.
