HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES H.B. NO. 469 THIRTY-THIRD LEGISLATURE, 2025 H.D. 2 STATE OF HAWAII S.D. 2 A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PARKING FOR DISABLED PERSONS. BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII: SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the statewide parking program for persons with disabilities provides individuals with mobility disabilities the ability to travel and park in accessible parking spaces. However, individuals with a removeable windshield placard that travel to another island or outside the State are often in situations where they need to park in an accessible parking space at a Hawaii airport or port but also must take their windshield placard to be used during their travels. Accordingly, the purpose of this Act is to allow a person with a removable windshield placard or disabled paid parking exemption permit but does not have a valid special license plate, to be issued a disability travel placard that is valid for a limited period to allow use of the removable windshield placard when traveling. SECTION 2. Chapter 291, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by adding a new section to part III to be appropriately designated and to read as follows: "§291- Issuance of a disability travel placard. (a) The issuing agency shall issue one disability travel placard to an applicant who has a valid removeable windshield placard or disabled paid parking exemption permit but does not have a valid special license plate, and presents a completed form, as provided by the issuing agency, along with a copy of the applicant's proof of travel. (b) The disability travel placard shall expire on the last day of the month following the return date indicated on the proof of travel. (c) For the purposes of this section, "disability travel placard" means a two-sided, hanger-style placard issued to a person with a disability who has a valid removable windshield placard or disabled paid parking exemption permit but does not have a valid special license plate, and who presents proof of intrastate or out-of-state travel to the issuing agency." SECTION 3. New statutory material is underscored. SECTION 4. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
