      H.D. 1

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2011

State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred S.B. No. 1342, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PARKING FOR THE DISABLED,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to clarify the requirements for displaying disabled parking placards in vehicles of persons with disabilities by allowing for disabled parking placards to be displayed on a vehicle's dashboard if the design of the vehicle's rearview mirror precludes secure hanging of the placard from the rearview mirror.

     The Disability and Communication Access Board supported this bill.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1342, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary,

____________________________
