What are the regulations regarding handicap parking for Washington State

I am employed by a University in Washington State, and I utilize a handicap parking space. It was recently requested that I not utilize that parking space, and I have also been asked to move my vehicle at times . The individual also told me that our directorwas going to get rid of the handicap parking space. I contacted our parking services and the disability service on campus, and they have told me that requests have been made, but at this time no decision has been made as to how they would deal with the circumstances. Reallocation to a different area was one of their propsoals. I was curious how situationssuch as these are handled, and do you think this is strange? - Is this your question?

A parking permit for a person with disabilities may be issued only for a medical necessity that severely affects mobility or involves acute sensitivity to light (RCW 46.16.381).
