§ 639-18. Purpose.

Section 1203-c of the Vehicle and Traffic Law establishes requirements for the owners of a shopping center or facility with at least five separate retail stores and at least 20 off-street parking spaces concerning the provision of a minimum number of such spaces for handicapped parking. The penalties imposed under this section of the Vehicle and Traffic Law are made subject to the provisions of local legislation. It is the intent of this Legislature to impose more stringent penalties for such illegal parking and to utilize the revenues derived from such penalties to improve handicapped facilities within the County.
