nated  by  such  city,  town or village or pursuant to the provisions of
section twelve hundred three-c of this article as a  place  for  parking
for  persons  with  disabilities.  The  design,  period of validity, and
procedures for reissuance of such permits shall be as determined by  the
commissioner.  A city, town or village issuing a permit pursuant to this
subdivision  or  subdivision  three  of  this  section  shall  indelibly
inscribe  or  otherwise mark, on the face of such permit, the last three
digits of the identification number of the driver's license or  non-dri-
ver  identification card of the person to whom the permit is issued. The
governing bodies of cities,  towns  and  villages  in  the  state  shall
appoint  an  issuing agent to issue such permits; PROVIDED, ANY INFORMA-

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
