B.
HANDICAPPED PARKING SIGN/SPACE
ISSUING AUTHORITY
OWNER
PERSON WITH A DISABILITY
Definitions; word usage. As used in this section, the following terms
shall have the meanings indicated:
A parking area on the streets and highways of the Borough
of Collingdale which is designated by the Borough Council of Collingdale
by way of the erection of a sign issued by the Borough and/or the
painting of a restricted parking area upon the street for the parking
of one vehicle, which designated area shall be most expeditiously
placed to permit access for the person with a disability to residential
quarters. The designated space shall not, however, be construed as
a private parking space reserved for the applicant. On the contrary,
said space may and shall be legally occupied by any vehicle displaying
a current handicapped registration.
Collingdale Borough Council.
Actual owner, agent or custodian of the property wherein
a handicapped parking area will be designated.
An individual who has applied for and been granted by the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania a vehicle registration/license plate
providing that person and/or vehicle with the right to occupy a parking
space specifically reserved for persons with physical or mental disabilities.
C.
Application procedure.
(1)
At the request of any person with a disability, as defined above,
the Borough Council may, upon motion made and seconded, authorize
the designation on a street or highway within the Borough, as close
as possible to the person with a disability's place of residence,
of an area indicting that said place is reserved for a person with
a disability and that no parking is allowed thereby other than a person
with a disability.
(2)
Any person requesting the reservation of a handicapped parking space
because of a physical or mental disability shall make application
therefore, in writing, to the Borough Manager which application shall
set forth or be accompanied by:
(a)
The name and address of the applicant.
(b)
The type of physical or mental disability of the applicant.
(c)
A current written medical report from a licensed physician certifying
the specific disability of the applicant and the need for handicapped
parking.
(d)
A valid handicapped or severely disabled veteran's vehicle
registration/license plate issued by the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation. Placards without valid handicap registration or license
plates will not be accepted.
(e)
An application fee of $25 made payable to the "Borough of Collingdale."
(3)
All applications shall be reviewed by the Public Safety Committee
and the Collingdale Police Department for a recommendation to the
Borough Council for approval or denial of the application. In addition
to the criteria established elsewhere in this section, the said Public
Safety Committee and the Collingdale Police Department may consider,
in determining the granting or denial of the application, whether
or not the applicant has sufficient off-street or other private parking
available, thereby negating the necessity of an on-street, public
parking space being allocated for this specific usage.
(4)
Upon the approval of an application, a sign shall be erected and/or
a space painted at or near the applicant's residence designating
the handicapped parking only space.
(5)
The Collingdale Police Department shall maintain a log of all existing
handicapped parking signs at all times, and the Borough Manager shall
maintain a log of all applications made, with the action taken upon
the request.
(6)
All approved applications shall be subject to review every two years
from the date of issue by the Public Safety Committee. At the time
of review, the applicant shall pay a renewal fee of $10, made payable
to the Borough of Collingdale. This application fee shall apply to
all approved applications, whether said approval was granted prior
to or after the enactment of this section. In the event that said
fee is not paid when addressed, then the issuing authority shall have
the authority to revoke the designation of the handicapped-parking-only
space.
(7)
It shall be unlawful for any person or owner to erect a handicapped
parking sign upon private grounds of the owner and/or upon the sidewalks
of the Borough of Collingdale, designating a handicapped-parking-only
space upon a street or highway of the Borough, without first making
application for a handicapped parking area to the Borough Manager
for the Borough of Collingdale.
(8)
The Collingdale Code Enforcement Officer shall advise the Public
Safety Committee of the sale of a property with a designated handicapped
parking spot, at which time a determination will be made regarding
removal of the handicapped parking sign and street markings.
D.
Eligibility; updating of stipulations. Any stipulations made at the
time of application regarding the eligibility of an applicant may
be updated periodically at the request of the issuing authority.
E.
Conflict of other provisions. Handicapped parking signs shall not
supersede existing parking regulations, including, but not limited
to, parking permits, street repair, street sweeping, snow ban or snow
removal.
F.
Signs to be Borough property. Handicapped parking signs will remain
the property of the Borough of Collingdale.
G.
Powers and duties of issuing authority.
(1)
The issuing authority shall be notified immediately if an eligible
person no longer qualifies for a handicapped parking sign under this
section; for example, if an eligible person enjoys an improved health
condition or is required to move from the premises wherein the sign
is located.
(2)
The Collingdale Borough Police will police and control areas governed
by handicapped parking sign.
(3)
The Collingdale Borough Council will take the following factors into
consideration in the issuance of handicapped parking signs:
(a)
Overall availability of parking in the area wherein a sign is
requested.
(b)
The living arrangements of an individual applicant herein; for
example, a disabled person living alone and responsible for his or
her own transportation.
(c)
Existing parking or traffic problems in the area wherein a handicapped
parking sign is requested.
(d)
Recommendation of Collingdale Police Department and Public Safety
Committee.
H.
Removal of signs. The Collingdale Police Department reserves the
right without Borough Council approval to have any handicapped parking
sign or street markings removed at its discretion to ensure the public
safety and welfare.
I.
Inspection of signs. The Borough of Collingdale Highway Department
will make an annual inspection of all existing handicapped parking
signs and repair or replace those signs as needed.
J.
Violations and penalties.
(1)
A person owning a vehicle parked in a handicapped parking designated
area without a handicapped plate properly displayed shall be guilty
of a summary offense and shall be subject to a fine of $50.
(2)
Any person designating a handicapped parking area without authority
under this section shall be guilty of a summary offense and shall
be subject to a fine of not less than $50 nor more than $100.
K.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this section,
Collingdale Borough shall have the authority, on its own, to designate
certain spaces, either on street or in municipal parking lots, as
restricted to handicapped parking and, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary elsewhere in this section, the owners of private property
may set aside one or more parking spaces for the exclusive use of
vehicles owned/operated by persons bearing the handicapped registration
plate; however, Collingdale Borough and its Police Department shall
have no enforcement powers as to handicapped parking spaces on private
property unless such spaces have been designated as so reserved the
same as on-street spaces which are the subject of this section.
A.
Findings and purpose. The Borough finds that:
(1)
Certain residential areas in the Borough are subjected to commuter
vehicle parking, therefore depriving the residents of those areas
of spaces in which to park their own vehicles;
(2)
Those residential streets are also subjected to a high degree of
commuter traffic, which substantially reduces the quality of the ambient
air level; and
(3)
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 Borough considers it to be in the interest
of the people of the Borough to provide for the establishment of a
residential permit parking program to ensure primary access to available
parking spaces by neighborhood residents and also to provide a cleaner
ambient air level.
B.
COMMUTER VEHICLE
PROPRIETOR
RESIDENT
RESIDENTIAL AREA
Definitions. For the purpose of this section, words and terms listed
in this subsection 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 one
parking permit for that business or professional office address.
A person who owns or leases real property within a residential
area and who maintains either a voting residence or a 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 nonbusiness property (such as schools, parks, places of worship,
hospitals and nursing homes).
C.
Criteria. The residential areas designated in Subsection D of this section are those deemed impacted and hence eligible for residential parking on the basis of the following criteria:
(1)
During any period between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:30 p.m., Monday
through Saturday, except legal holidays, 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.
(2)
During the same period as specified in Subsection C(1), directly above, 10% or more of the vehicles parked (or standing) on the streets in the area are not registered in the name of a person residing in the area. For the purpose of this criterion, the latest available information from the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and Licensing of the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation regarding registration of motor vehicles shall be used.
(a)
Provided that, in determining that a specific area identified
as impacted and eligible for residential permit parking is designated
as a residential permit parking area, the following factors are taken
into consideration:
[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 Borough;
[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; and
[6]
The need for parking in excess of the residential permit parking
program in proximity to establishments located in the residential
permit parking area and used by the general public for religious,
health or educational purposes.
D.
Designation of residential permit parking areas. The following are
designated as residential permit parking areas:
|
Area
|
Bounded by and Including
| |
|---|---|---|
|
(Reserved)
| ||
(1)
Signs shall be erected along the streets in each residential permit
parking area, indicating the days, hours, locations and conditions
under which parking shall be by permit only.
E.
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 be only the owner or the driver of a motor vehicle who resides
on or is 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. Each application
shall contain the following information: the name of the owner or
the driver, as the case may be, 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; and the driver number,
as taken from the applicant's current driver's license.
At the discretion of the Chief of Police, the applicant shall be required
at the time of making application to present his driver's license
and the vehicle registration card.
F.
Issuance of permit. Upon receipt of the application and the permit
fee, and determination by him 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.
The permit shall display the serial and registration numbers of the
motor vehicle, the residential parking area number and the expiration
date. The permit shall be renewable annually before the expiration
date, upon making application for renewal and payment of the $10 permit
fee. 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.
G.
Temporary and exemption parking permits. Temporary parking permits
may be issued by the Chief of Police, upon payment of a fee of $2,
to bona fide visitors of residents of a designated residential permit
parking area and exemption parking permits may be issued, without
payment of a fee, to handicapped persons.
H.
Responsibility of permit holder:
(1)
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 displayed
so as to be clearly visible through the windshield of the vehicle.
A residential parking permit shall not guarantee or reserve to the
holder a parking space within a designated residential permit parking
area.
(2)
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.
I.
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 that any person receiving such
a notice may, within 10 days after the date of the notice, appeal
to Borough Council for a hearing on the revocation; and the decision
of the Borough Council shall be final.

conviction, be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $15 and costs;
except for overnight truck and/or commercial vehicle parking which,
if violated, upon conviction, shall be sentenced to pay a fine of
not more than $25 and costs. Provided that it shall be the duty of
the police officers and of parking enforcement personnel of the Borough
to report to the appropriate official all violations of any provision
of this article, 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 article.
The notice shall contain instructions to that owner or driver of the
vehicle to report to the Borough Hall Police Headquarters and pay
the sum of $15 for motor vehicles or $25 in the case of violations
pertaining to overnight truck and/or commercial vehicle parking within
seven days after the time of the notice.
B.
However, if said sum is not paid within seven days as provided herein,

truck and/or commercial vehicle parking, the fine shall be $40.
C.
The failure of such owner or operator to make such payment at Police
Headquarters and/or the Borough Hall shall render such owner or operator
subject to the maximum penalties allowable by law.
