Council to vote on parking fines

Fines for handicapped parking violators could go up to $500, and a piece of land in Annapolis could become the future home of a veterans? hall after tonight?s Anne Arundel County Council meeting.

Among the agenda items is a bill to raise the fine for able-bodied people parking in a handicapped space by $400. The county has one of the lowest penalties around and the legislation came as a result of increased complaints about violators.
