An Act relative to courtesy retail parking spaces designed for non-handicapped veterans

This bill allows Massachusetts municipalities to create dedicated parking spaces for veterans in large retail lots and garages, provided the vehicle displays a veteran license plate. It permits cities to reserve up to two spaces in lots with over 1,000 spots, with additional spaces allowed for every 500 spots thereafter, and requires clear signage designating these areas for those who have served. The legislation also establishes a $100 fine and vehicle removal for unauthorized use, while directing state officials to assist parking lot owners in implementing these courtesy spaces.
