This bill amends R.S. 29:27.1(A) and (B) to enhance the provisions regarding free airport parking for disabled veterans. It clarifies the proof of disability requirements by allowing disabled veterans to present a military honor license plate, a disabled veteran identification card issued by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, or a completed certificate from the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs to qualify for free parking.
Additionally, the bill removes the previous limitation that prohibited disabled veterans from parking for more than ten days. Instead, it now allows them to park for free for the duration of their travel, provided they present proof of an airline ticket showing their departure and return dates. This change aims to provide greater accessibility and convenience for disabled veterans utilizing airport facilities.
