No vehicle may be parked in a commuter parking space while the use of such space is restricted as set forth above, unless a district commuter parking permit has been issued for such parking by the District and is either affixed to the rear bumper on the operator's side of the vehicle or can be verified using license plate recognition. The fee for the issuance of a district commuter parking permit shall be set by resolution of the Board of Commissioners and shall be nonrefundable.

The District shall require that each applicant for a district commuter parking permit produce three of the following items as satisfactory evidence that the applicant is a resident of the District:

Motor vehicle registration;

Motor vehicle leasing agreement;

Deed or lease showing ownership or rental of a residential property within the District;

Tax bill; or

(e)

Such other documentation deemed acceptable.

Display and verification of parking voucher; fee.

Except as provided for in Subsection C(4)(b) below, the operator of a vehicle desiring to park in a space designated for commuter parking shall display a parking voucher by hanging it from the vehicle's rearview mirror. The parking voucher must be displayed so it is completely visible. No portion of the parking voucher shall be covered or obscured in any manner.

License plate recognition shall be used to verify the issuance of a virtual parking voucher. In such instances, the provisions of Subsection C(4)(a) above shall not apply.

The fee for a parking voucher shall be set by resolution of the Board of Commissioners and shall be nonrefundable.

A district commuter parking permit shall be used only by the registered holder and may not be sold or transferred. No person shall permit or allow a district commuter parking permit to be posted on, or transferred to, a vehicle other than the vehicle for which the permit was issued without the written consent of the District. Such permit shall be null and void without such consent.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, the District may issue an emergency personnel permit to a first responder or an emergency medical professional as follows:

[Added 6-5-2018 by L.L. No. 4-2018]

The District may designate no more than 12 off-street commuter parking spaces for use solely by first responders or emergency medical professionals with an emergency personnel permit. The District may issue up to 12 emergency personnel permits. Permits shall be issued on a first-come-first-served basis. Permits shall be valid for one year from the date of issuance. The Town Board, by resolution, may increase or decrease the number of spaces that may be designated for use by permit holders and the number of permits that may be outstanding at any given time.

Each applicant for an emergency personnel permit must otherwise be eligible to apply for and receive a commuter permit and must submit or provide, at the time of application for a permit and in addition to those items required by § 83C(3) above, a notarized statement from the first responder's or emergency medical professional's employer indicating that the first responder or emergency medical professional is regularly required to work overnight, a twenty-four-hour shift or any work schedule that would require the individual to be at his or her work site between the hours of 12:00 midnight and 7:00 a.m.

The fee for an emergency personnel permit shall be the same as the fee for a commuter permit. The operator of a vehicle desiring to park in a space designated for parking with an emergency personnel permit shall display a parking voucher by hanging it from the vehicle's rearview mirror such that it is completely visible and not covered or obscured in any manner. In the event that license plate recognition is used to verify the issuance of a virtual parking voucher, the provisions of the preceding sentence shall not apply.

In the event that a first responder or emergency medical professional has purchased a commuter permit from the District and desires to obtain an emergency personnel permit, the first responder or emergency medical professional may apply for an emergency personnel permit by providing only the notarized statement described in Subsection C(6)(b) above. An emergency personnel permit obtained pursuant to this Subsection C(6)(d) shall not require payment of the fee described in Subsection C(6)(c) above and shall remain effective for the term of the first responder's or emergency medical professional's commuter permit.

(e)

Notwithstanding § 83B(4) of this article, holders of an emergency personnel permit may park their vehicle in a space designated by the District pursuant to Subsection C(6)(a) for a period of up to 72 consecutive hours.

(f)

An emergency personnel permit shall be used only by the registered holder on the vehicle registered with the District and may not be sold or transferred. No person shall allow a permit to be posted on, or transferred to, a vehicle other than the vehicle for which the permit was issued without the written consent of the District. Permits transferred without the District's written consent shall be null and void.

(g)

The District, acting through the Commissioner of the Department of Public Safety, may promulgate rules and regulations for the issuance of emergency personnel permits.

(h)

Revocation and suspension.

The District may revoke or suspend an emergency personnel permit upon finding, after a hearing, of one or more of the following:

The holder of the permit has made a misrepresentation or a false statement in his or her application for a permit.

The procedures for the hearing and the revocation and suspension of the permit shall be the same as those required for the revocation of a merchant parking permit contained in § 83E(9)(b) below.

Shopper parking.

The Commissioners of the Port Washington Public Parking District shall provide for the installation, regulation, control, operation and use of parking meters provided for in this article and shall cause said meters to be maintained in good workable condition. Meters shall be placed upon the curb next to individual parking places and meters shall be constructed so as to display a signal showing legal parking upon deposit therein of the proper coin, or coins, of the United States as indicated by the instructions on said meter, and for the period of time purchased by the coin or coins deposited in said meter as provided by this article, said signal to remain in evidence until expiration of said parking period so designated, at which time a change of signal or some other mechanical operation shall indicate expiration of said parking period.

§ 85 Designation of parking meter spaces.

The District is hereby authorized to mark off individual parking spaces in the parking zones designated and described by this article and in such other zones as may hereafter be established. Said parking spaces are to be designated by lines painted or durably marked upon the curbing or surface of the street. At each space so marked it shall be unlawful to park any vehicle in such a way that said vehicle shall not be entirely within the limits of the space so designated.

[Amended 4-19-2016 by L.L. No. 5-2016]

§ 87 Operation and payment of parking meters.

[Amended 4-19-2016 by L.L. No. 5-2016]

Except in a period of emergency determined by an officer of the Port Washington Fire Department or Port Washington Police Department, or in compliance with the directions of a police officer or traffic control sign or signal, when any vehicle shall be parked in any parking space alongside or next to which a parking meter is located, the operator of such vehicle shall, upon entering said parking meter space, immediately make the parking meter payment as is required for such parking meter. Failure to make the parking meter payment shall constitute a violation of this article. Upon making a proper parking meter payment, the parking space may be lawfully occupied by such vehicle during the period of time purchased, provided that any person placing a vehicle in a parking meter space adjacent to a meter which indicates that unused time has been left in the meter by the previous occupant of the space shall not be required to pay for such space so long as his/her occupancy of said space does not exceed the indicated unused parking time. If said vehicle shall remain parked in any such parking space beyond the parking time set for parking space, and if the meter shall indicate such illegal parking, then, and in that event, such vehicle shall be considered as parking overtime and beyond the period of legal parking time and such parking shall be deemed a violation of this article.
