RELATING TO TRANSPORTATION.

Added file metadata headers and timestamps at the beginning of the document that were not present in the previous version.

Adjusted spacing and line breaks throughout the text for improved formatting and readability.

Removed stray characters and formatting artifacts (such as '~', 'T', and '1') that appeared in the original draft.

Updated the bill description at the bottom to reflect the new version number (HD2) instead of HD1.

Fine amounts were increased from a maximum of $50 to a range of $100-$500 per violation, making penalties more severe for parking violations near crosswalks.

The requirement for signs or curb markings to restrict parking was removed, clarifying that parking restrictions apply regardless of whether official signage is present.

Exemptions for vehicles were clarified to include vehicles necessary to assist stalled/broken vehicles and vehicles yielding to emergency vehicles, with more precise language than the Senate version.

The effective date was changed from January 1, 2026 to July 1, 3000, which appears to be a placeholder date that may need correction before final passage.

New statutory material is now underscored and repealed material is bracketed and stricken, following standard House formatting conventions for legislative amendments.

Removed speed limit thresholds for parking restrictions, now prohibiting parking within 20 feet of any crosswalk or intersection regardless of posted speed limits.

Clarified that official signs or curb markings are not required to enforce parking restrictions near crosswalks.

Added requirement that all fines from parking violations be deposited into the Safe Routes to School Program Special Fund to finance pedestrian safety infrastructure.

Updated fine amount to $50 per violation and clarified that each day of violation constitutes a separate offense.

Changed effective date from immediate approval to January 1, 2026.
