CS/HB 271 (Lopez, V.) and CS/SB 388 (Garcia) narrow the current preemption on the regulation of private parking lot operations to include a preemption only on the rates charged for parking and for violating the parking lot rules. The bills would restrict parking lot owners from charging a late fee until after 30 days from the date the invoice was postmarked. The bill also prohibits parking lot owners from charging for parking if the vehicle is on the property for less than 10 minutes. CS/SB 388 was amended to require owners or operators of private property used for parking to place signage where it is clearly visible to people entering the parking lot. The bill provides that the signage may be regulated by the local government where the property is located. (Branch)
