For a person with a disability that limits or restricts their mobility, lack of sufficient parking can be a significant barrier to the full use and enjoyment of his or her dwelling. Lack of sufficient parking for persons with disabilities at a housing complex can also be a violation of State parking law, as well as State and Federal Fair Housing Laws. A resident with a disability who has a DOT parking permit who cannot find an available ‘persons with disabilities parking space’ or other suitable parking is effectively denied housing based on disability.
