What’s in it

AI summary If you pay for a parking meter, you can let someone else use your spot even if your time hasn't run out yet. Parking machines and apps must show how much time is left from the previous person so the next driver can buy more time for that same spot. This rule applies to all parking meters run by the state or local cities.1

Read the official explanation

This bill relates to public parking meters. The bill requires a parking meter operated or maintained by or on behalf of a state entity or local authority to authorize the use of a parking space by all users for the duration purchased, regardless of whether the purchasing user vacates the parking space prior to the expiration of the purchased duration. The bill also requires a parking meter, kiosk, or internet application for a parking space to display any remaining duration purchased by a prior user and allow a new user to purchase additional time for the parking space.

Why it matters. People using parking spaces operated by state or local authorities would be allowed to stay in a space for the full time they paid for, even if they leave early. Parking meters, kiosks, and apps must also show any remaining time from a previous user and allow new users to buy more time for that same space.2

Changed since by amendment H-8135; see Amendments.
