321L.6 Handicapped parking sign.

A handicapped parking sign shall be displayed designating the handicapped parking space.

1. The handicapped parking sign shall have a blue background and bear the international symbol of accessibility in white. If an entity who owns or leases real property in a city is required to provide handicapped parking spaces, the city shall provide, upon request, the signs for the entity at cost. If an entity who owns or leases real property outside the corporate limits of a city is required to provide handicapped parking spaces, the county in which the property is located shall provide the signs for the entity at cost upon request.

2. The handicapped parking sign shall be affixed vertically on another object so that it is readily visible to a driver of a motor vehicle approaching the handicapped parking space. A handicapped parking space designated only by the international symbol of accessibility being painted or otherwise placed horizontally on the parking space does not meet the requirements of this subsection.

3. The handicapped parking sign shall include a sign stating that the fine for improperly using the handicapped parking space is fifty dollars.*
