§ 2]
1.
Findings and Purpose. The Township of Ferguson finds that:
A.
Certain residential areas in the Township of Ferguson are subjected
to commuter vehicle parking, therefore depriving the residents of
those areas of spaces in which to park their own vehicles.
B.
Those residential streets with a high degree of commuter traffic
also suffer a reduction in the quality of neighborhood life due to
increased ambient noise level, air pollution, and traffic congestion.
C.
The establishment of a parking permit program for certain affected
areas should facilitate efficient movement of traffic by providing
for parking preference during certain hours of the day and days of
the week. Therefore, the Township of Ferguson considers it to be in
the interest of the people of the Township of Ferguson to provide
for the establishment of a residential permit parking program to insure
primary access to available parking spaces by neighborhood residents
and businesses and also to provide a quieter and cleaner air level.

Definitions. For the purpose of this section, words and terms listed
in this subsection, as follows, shall have the following meanings:
A motor vehicle parked in a residential area by a person
not a resident of that residential area.
A person who owns or leases real estate within a residential
area of which he is not a resident, but who owns or manages a business
enterprise or professional office maintained at that address; for
the purpose of this section, a proprietor shall be entitled to no
more than two parking permits for that business or professional office
address, unless extenuating circumstances exist as determined by the
Chief of Police, and the total number of permits issued do not exceed
the available number of spaces for all residents of the street block
on which the main entry door of the business faces.
A person who owns or leases real property within a residential
area and who maintains either a voting residence, or bona fide occupancy,
or both, at that address.
A contiguous area containing public highways or parts of
public highways primarily abutted by residential property or residential
and non-business property (such as schools, parks, places of worship,
hospitals and nursing homes).
3.
Criteria. The residential areas designated in Subsection 4 of this section are those deemed impacted and hence eligible for residential parking on the basis of the following criteria:
A.
During any period between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:30 p.m., Monday
through Saturday, except legal holidays, for multiple day periods
as determined by the Township, the number of vehicles parked (or standing),
legally or illegally, on the streets in the area is equal to 70% or
more of the legal, on-street parking capacity of the area. For the
purpose of this criterion, a legal parking space shall be 20 linear
feet.
B.
During the same period as specified in Subsection 3A, directly above,
10% or more of the vehicles parked (or standing) on the streets in
the area are not owned and/or driven by a resident or proprietor of
that residential area.
[Amended by Ord. No. 1052, 2/18/2020]
C.
Special Requests. Property owners may ask the Board of Supervisors
to designate certain streets as residential permit parking areas.
[Added by Ord. No. 1052, 2/18/2020]
D.
In determining that a specific area identified as impacted and eligible
for residential permit parking designation, the following factors
are taken into consideration:
[Added by Ord. No. 1052, 2/18/2020]
(1)
The local and metropolitan needs with respect to clean air and environment.
(2)
The possibility of a reduction in total vehicle miles driven in the
Township of Ferguson.
(3)
The likelihood of alleviating traffic congestion, illegal parking
and related health and safety hazards.
(4)
The proximity of public transportation to the residential area.
(5)
The desire and need of the residents for residential permit parking
and their willingness to bear the administrative costs in connection
with it.
(6)
The need for parking in excess of the residential permit parking
program in proximity to establishments located in the residential

Application for Permit. Application for a residential parking permit
shall be made to the Chief of Police by the person desiring the permit,
who shall reside on, or be a proprietor of, property immediately adjacent
to a street or other location within a residential parking permit
area. A separate application shall be required for each motor vehicle
at each address, and each application shall be accompanied by the
permit fee as set by resolution of the Board of Supervisors, which
shall be for the use of the Township of Ferguson to be applied to
the cost of administering the residential permit parking program.
Each application shall contain the following information: the name
of the owner and the driver of the motor vehicle; the address of the
resident or the proprietor, as the case may be; the make, model and
registration number of the motor vehicle; the driver number as taken
from the applicant's current driver's license, and any other reasonable
information deemed necessary by the Township to issue and control
permits. At the discretion of the Chief of Police, the applicant shall
be required, at the time of making application, the vehicle registration
card, and proof of residency and/or proprietorship.
6.
Issuance of Permits. Permits will be issued based on the availability
of spaces in the following priority:
[Amended by Ord. No. 1052, 2/18/2020]
A.
Owner-occupied residence: up to four permits per residence or parcel.
B.
Rushcliffe
Street: up to two permits per residence.
C.
Leased residence: up to three permits per residence and a maximum
of four per parcel.
D.
Rushcliffe
Street: up to two permits per leased/rental residence.
E.
Business: up to two permits per business and a maximum of four per
parcel. Should the above priority issuance criteria result in more
permits than available spaces, each will be reduced by one permit
in reverse listing order on the next renewal date until the number
of permits does not exceed the number of available spaces. Should
more spaces exist than permits, the above numbers may be increased
for owner occupied residences first and businesses secondly.
|
Upon receipt of the application and the permit fee, and determination
that the information upon the application shows that the applicant
is entitled to a residential parking permit, the Chief of Police shall
issue to the applicant a residential parking permit, which shall be
valid for the remainder of the calendar year in which the permit was
issued. The permit shall be renewable annually before the expiration
date, upon making application for renewal and payment of the permit
fee. Any consecutive renewal permit fee shall be waived for owner
occupied residences after the first year of payment. It shall be unlawful
and a violation of this section for any person to display other than
the current and valid permit while standing or parking in a residential
permit parking area at any time when those permits are to be displayed.

7.
Temporary and Exemption Parking Permits. Temporary parking permits
(up to 30 days) may be issued by the Chief of Police to bona fide
visitors of residents of a designated residential permit parking area.
8.
Responsibility of Permit Holder.
A.
Notwithstanding any provision of this section to the contrary, the
holder of a residential parking permit shall be permitted to stand
or park a motor vehicle operated by him in any designated residential
parking area during those times when parking of motor vehicles is
permitted in that area. While a vehicle for which a residential parking
permit has been issued is so parked, that permit shall be clearly
visible and displayed and/or affixed in the place and manner as directed
by the Chief of Police when the permit is issued. A residential parking
permit shall not guarantee or reserve to the holder a parking space
within a designated residential permit parking area.
B.
A residential parking permit shall not authorize its holder to stand
or park a motor vehicle in any place where or at any time when stopping,
standing or parking of motor vehicles is prohibited or set aside for
other specified types of vehicles, nor shall the permit exempt its
holder from the observance of any traffic or parking regulation other
than residential permit parking regulation or restriction.
C.
No person other than the permit holder whose name appears on the
permit shall use a residential parking permit or display it on a vehicle
operated; any such use or display by a person other than the permit
holder shall constitute a violation of this section by the permit
holder and by the person who so used or displayed the parking permit.
D.
It shall constitute a violation of this section for any person falsely
to represent himself as eligible for a residential parking permit
or to furnish false information in an application to the Chief of
Police in order to obtain a residential parking permit.
9.
Revocation of Permits. The Chief of Police shall have authority to
revoke the residential parking permit of any permit holder found to
be in violation of any provision of this section. Upon written notification
to him of the revocation, the permit holder shall surrender the permit
to the Chief of Police. Failure to do so, when so requested, shall
constitute a violation of this section. Provided: any person receiving
such a notice may, within 10 days after the date of the notice, appeal
to Board of Supervisors for a hearing on the revocation, and the decision
of Board of Supervisors shall be final.
[Ord. 374, 1/10/1989; as amended by Ord. 820, 12/8/2003;
and by Ord. 971, 8/20/2012, § 2]
Any person who violates any provision of this Part shall, upon
conviction, be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $25 and costs.
Provided: it shall be the duty of the police officers and of parking
enforcement personnel of the Township of Ferguson to report to the
appropriate official all violations of any provision of this Part,
indicating, in each case: the section violated; the license number
of the vehicle involved in the violation; the location where the violation
took place; and any other facts that might be necessary in order to
secure a clear understanding of the circumstances attending the violation.
The police officer or other person making the report shall also attach
to or place upon every such vehicle a notice stating that the vehicle
was parked in violation of this Part.
