Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 1859, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO FUNDING FOR PARKING FOR DISABLED PERSONS,"

The purpose of this bill is to help cover the costs of administering parking for persons with disabilities by increasing the annual vehicle registration fee by $1, which will be deposited into the Disability and Communication Access Board Special Fund (Special Fund).
This bill also statutorily repeals the deposit of application fees for the credentialing of interpreters into the Special Fund, and the use of Special Fund moneys to cover the costs of administering the program for their credentialing.
The Disability and Communications Access Board and several concerned individuals testified in support of this bill. The State Council on Developmental Disabilities provided comments.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1859, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
