The policy and intent of this legislature is declared to be as follows:

A. that this legislature finds there is a significant safety hazard for persons with significant mobility limitation crossing through parking lots and that this hazard is greatly reduced when parking is provided adjacent to a building entrance;

B. that commercial and governmental establishments provide reserved parking for persons with significant mobility limitation, thus ensuring full and equal opportunity for those persons to maintain independence and self-respect; and

C. that ultimately society will benefit from the increased interaction of persons with significant mobility limitation with the mainstream that these parking spaces will provide.
