A. The subject residential property has no off-street parking under
the terms of its original construction permit, or by virtue of any
approved site plan; and
B. The width of the subject residential property's front yard, as defined in §

[Amended 6-6-2022 by Ord. No. 2022-05 (1223)]
A. All residential parking permits shall expire on December 31 of the
year in which issued. Previously granted residential parking permits
which are not renewed by January 31 of the year succeeding expiration
of the residential parking space are subject to removal of any signage
and restoration of the parking space for general use.
B. To cover the Borough's costs in marking and delineating the space
and issuing a window residential parking decal for a space designated
as a residential parking space, the property owner shall pay a non-prorated
one-time fee of $250 to the Borough Clerk upon issuance of the permit.
In the event a property owner shall allow his/her residential parking
permit to lapse for more than 31 days after the December 31 expiration
date before renewal, a new marking and delineating fee may be charged
if such signage or marking has been removed prior to renewal by that
property owner.
C. The property owner shall pay a non-prorated fee of $300 per annum
to the Borough Clerk for the first year of the residential parking
permit. Such non-prorated fee shall be reduced to a non-prorated fee
of $150 per annum payable to the Borough Clerk for each year thereafter.
D. The Borough
shall issue a window residential parking permit decal to be displayed
on the vehicle, for which the residential parking permit is issued,
in the rear driver side window.
E. Residential
parking permits are not transferable, are intended for residents only,
and shall not be issued to tenants. Residential parking permits shall
not be issued to any owner of a rental property for use by tenants
or third parties. Residential parking permits shall expire upon sale
or transfer of the property for which the residential parking permit
is issued.
F. There shall
be no per annum fee for a residential parking permit for disabled
citizens and veterans, subject to verification of disability through
valid disabled parking vehicle registration, placard or other documentation
issued by the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission or law enforcement
agency. However, disabled citizens shall still pay the non-prorated
one-time fee of $250 to defray the Borough's cost of marking and delineating
the space reserved for such residential parking permit. There are
no senior discounts or waivers of fees. Disabled veterans shall not
pay any marking and delineation fee.
