[Added 3-14-2016 by L.L. No. 5-2016, effective 3-28-2016]
A. 
Many neighborhoods in the Village adjacent to the Mamaroneck train station were developed in the 1920s through 1940s, have inadequate on-site parking, and rely on on-street parking. Due to the close proximity of these streets to the Mamaroneck train station, commuters often park on these streets rather than in an off-street parking lot for which the purchase of a permit is required. As a result, a long-standing conflict has developed and continued between the needs of those neighborhoods' residents for available on-street parking in close proximity to their homes and the desire of commuters to park on the street in close proximity to the train station.
B. 
To alleviate this conflict, the Board of Trustees sought state legislation authorizing the creation of an on-street parking permit system for residents, which legislation was adopted and became effective on September 25, 2015, and codified in the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law as section 1640-o.
C. 
The Board of Trustees hereby finds that a residential parking permit system in certain areas of the Village of Mamaroneck is necessary in order to preserve the character of the neighborhoods, improving access to residences and parking for residents, and reducing traffic hazards, congestion, and air and noise pollution detrimental to the health, safety, and welfare of its residents.
