A. 
The City Administrator is authorized to designate roads, streets, and other areas in the City as parking permit areas in which the parking of vehicles is restricted during specified times, unless a proper parking permit is displayed in or on the vehicle. The parking restrictions shall normally limit nonresident parking to periods of three hours or less between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, excluding holidays. However, when deemed necessary, the City Administrator may prescribe other hours and days when the parking restrictions are operative. Subject to Subsection B, the City Administrator may prohibit all nonresident parking in a parking permit area during the specified times when the restrictions are in effect.
B. 
Except as modified below, the following shall be necessary to the designation of a City parking permit area:
(1) 
The area shall be one consisting solely of residential uses and in which commercial and industrial uses do not exist.
(2) 
A City traffic survey shall establish that, during the time period when parking restrictions may be imposed:
(a) 
Nonresidents park their vehicles in the area and proceed by other means to an area of commercial or industrial use, to a school or recreational area, or to public transportation; or, in the alternative, park their vehicles in the area and proceed to a multifamily unit or complex; and
(b) 
The average number of vehicles parked as described in Subsection B(2)(a) is in excess of 25% of the number of parking spaces available to the public without charge in the area and the total number of such spaces occupied by any vehicles exceeds 75% of such spaces; and
(c) 
At least 25% of the affected residential units have fewer than two off-street parking spaces.
(3) 
A residential area may be considered for parking permit restrictions upon request of the residents affected or upon request of the elected officials.
(4) 
Before a parking permit area is established or terminated, the City Administrator or his designee shall cause a public hearing to be held. The hearing shall be at City Hall or at a location within or reasonably adjacent to the area concerned and shall be preceded by due public notice published in a newspaper of circulation in the City. The notice shall state the time, place, and purpose of the hearing, the exact description of the area being considered, the time proposed for restrictive parking and any parking permit fee proposed. In addition to the published notice, reasonable efforts shall be made to mail or hand-deliver a similar notice to each household within the parking permit area.
Permits for parking in any parking permit area may be granted under objective criteria to be established by the City Administrator, to include, but not necessarily be limited to, residents of the area for every vehicle owned by such residents, and visitors of residents of the area for a period of 30 days, which permit may be renewable.
A. 
Parking restrictions of this article shall not apply to service or delivery vehicles being used to provide services or delivery to a resident of the area.
B. 
The City Administrator shall exempt metered parking spaces from area restrictions.
C. 
There shall also be issued permits exempting handicapped persons from the restrictions of any parking permit area which may be established; automobiles equipped with special handicapped licensed plates shall need no further permit under this section.
Following designation of a parking permit area, the City Administrator shall cause parking signs to be placed in the area indicating the parking restrictions and the parking permit exceptions.
A. 
No person shall park any vehicle or use any parking permit in a manner contrary to the regulations and provisions established by the City Administrator pursuant to this article.
B. 
Any person issued a citation for a violation of this section shall be subject to a fine of $50 for each violation.
C. 
It shall be the duty of the police officers of the City, or any other City employees specifically designated by the City Administrator, to enforce the provisions of this article. The Police Department is authorized to impound and remove any vehicle parked in violation of the regulations and provisions established pursuant to this article without prior notice pursuant to Article IV.
