All previous ordinances of the Borough of Marietta pertaining to the regulation of traffic and parking are hereby repealed.

The repeal of ordinances provided for in Subsection A above shall not affect or prevent the prosecution or punishment of any person for any act done or liability incurred in violation of any ordinance or regulation in force immediately prior to the taking effect of this chapter.
C. 
The provisions of this chapter, insofar as they are the same as those of ordinances and regulations in force immediately prior to the enactment of this chapter, are intended as a continuation of such ordinances and regulations and not as new enactments.
[Amended 2-14-1984 by Ord. No. 84-4; 4-9-1985 by Ord. No. 85-4; 10-8-1991 by Ord. No. 91-6; 12-13-2005; 9-12-2017 by Ord. No. 2017-046-10-2025 by Ord. No. 2025-01]
A. 
Violations generally. Unless another penalty is expressly provided by the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code or except as hereinafter specified, every person convicted of a violation of a provision of this chapter or any supplement thereto shall be liable to a penalty of not more than $100 and costs of prosecution.
B. 
Any person violating the provisions of Article V of this chapter pertaining to parking meters shall, upon conviction, be guilty of a summary offense and be sentenced to pay a fine and costs of prosecution and, in default of payment of fine and costs, such person shall be subject to imprisonment for not more than five days. The fine shall be in an amount established in a fee resolution by the Marietta Borough Council, not to exceed the limits in § 326-38A. If the person violating the provisions of this chapter pertaining to parking shall, within five days of the violation, pay 50% of the then-current fine, that act will save the violator from prosecution from the payment of the fines and costs prescribed first sentence of this subsection.[1]
