The bill, HB 534, addresses the regulations surrounding the booting of motor vehicles parked on private property. It clarifies that the ownership entity of the parking facility cannot receive any compensation, including rebates or other valuable considerations, related to the immobilization of vehicles through booting, except for unpaid parking fees. Additionally, it specifies that any unpaid parking fees must not exceed the actual amount incurred for parking in the facility.
The bill also includes amendments that reject certain Senate proposals, such as those that would have restricted compensation for immediate family members of the owner involved in booting 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, focusing instead on the ownership entity's limitations regarding compensation related to booting activities.
