AI Summary

  • Requires employers with 50+ employees in nonattainment air basins to offer parking cash-out programs that provide cash allowances equal to or greater than the parking subsidy otherwise paid for employee parking spaces.

  • Redefines "parking subsidy" as the difference between the price charged to employees for parking and the market rate cost of parking, with market rate capped at $350 per month (adjusted annually for inflation starting January 1, 2024).

  • Mandates employers maintain records documenting that employees receiving parking subsidies have been informed of their right to receive the cash equivalent instead.

  • Authorizes the State Air Resources Board to annually adjust inflation-based parking cost amounts and imposes civil penalties for violations under Section 43016.

  • Allows cities, counties, and air districts to establish their own enforcement mechanisms and penalties, but prevents duplicate penalties from multiple jurisdictions.
