The bill, HB 534, addresses the booting of motor vehicles parked on private property, specifically focusing on the financial relationships between parking facility operators and booting companies. The Conference Committee Report adopts amendments that clarify that the ownership entity of the parking facility cannot receive any compensation related to the immobilization of vehicles, except for unpaid parking fees. Additionally, it specifies that any unpaid parking fees cannot exceed the actual amount incurred for parking in the facility.
The report rejects certain Senate amendments that would have expanded restrictions on compensation to immediate family members of the owner and restored previous prohibitions on monetary interests between parking facility companies and booting companies. The proposed law removes existing provisions that previously regulated these relationships, streamlining the rules to focus solely on the ownership entity's compensation in connection with booting activities.
