[Adopted 3-8-1962 by Ord.
No. 331]
Due to the increasingly heavy flow of motor vehicular traffic
on the streets and highways within the Municipality of Monroeville
and due to the heavy flow of motor vehicular traffic to and from private
business establishments adjacent to said streets and highways, it
has become necessary to regulate the outdoor display of wares and
merchandise stored, parked or displayed on private property to improve
visibility and observance of oncoming traffic.
From and after the effective date of this article, it shall
be unlawful to store, park or display wares or articles of merchandise,
whether or not offered for sale, on that portion of any lot within
the Municipality of Monroeville lying within 10 feet of the right-of-way
line of any Municipality, county or state street or highway.
Any storage, parking or display of wares or merchandise within
the right-of-way limits of any state, county or Municipality street
or highway is prohibited.
This article shall apply equally to all properties within the
Municipality of Monroeville presently used in whole or in part for
the outdoor display of such wares or merchandise, as well as other
properties not presently so used.
[Amended 7-8-1997 by Ord.
No. 2042]
Any person violating any provision or regulation of this article
shall, after reasonable notice and upon conviction thereof before
any District Justice, be fined a sum not exceeding $600, plus costs
of prosecution, and, upon default of payment of said fine and costs,
may be committed to imprisonment in the Allegheny County Jail for
a period not exceeding 30 days. Each day that a violation is permitted
to exist after written notice has been served by the Municipal Manager
shall constitute a separate offense and may be punishable as such
hereunder.
