Requires provision of parking spaces reserved exclusively for persons unable to ambulate without aid of wheelchair in certain parking facilities.
This bill requires new parking facilities in New Jersey (with 8+ regular spaces) to reserve at least 1% of spaces - minimum one space - exclusively for people who cannot walk without a wheelchair. For non-residential facilities, these spaces are restricted 8 a.m.-8 p.m. (available to those with disability placards outside these hours); for parking adjacent to multiple dwelling units, they’re reserved 24/7. The spaces must be 12 feet wide, near building entrances, marked with the International Symbol of Access, and located closer to buildings than existing disability parking. The bill also mandates an educational campaign about these spaces and clarifies they’re in addition to current disability parking requirements.
