BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
Sec. 1 RCW 46.61.581 and 1998 c 294 s 2 are each amended to read

A parking space or stall for a disabled person shall be indicated

ground, with the international symbol of access, whose colors are white
on a blue background, described under RCW 70.92.120 ((and the notice

space that should be so designated. The person owning or controlling
the property where the required parking spaces are located shall ensure
that the parking spaces are not blocked or made inaccessible, and
failure to do so is a class 2 civil infraction.
