Assembly Bill 1379 increased the state-mandated fee to $4.00 after January 1, 2018)

The fee will go towards increasing disability access and compliance with construction-related accessibility requirements and developing educational resources for businesses to facilitate compliance with federal and state disability laws, as specified.
