[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
Parking meters shall be installed in each of the parking meter
zones and municipal parking lots established, immediately adjacent
to each individual parking space. Each meter shall be placed or set
in such manner as to show that the parking space adjacent to such
meter is or is not legally occupied. Each meter installed shall indicate
by a proper legend the legal parking time established by the Borough
and, when occupied, shall indicate by its digital display the duration
of the period of legal parking and, on expiration of such period,
shall indicate illegal or overtime parking. Such meters, after installation,
shall be under the management and supervision of the Borough Manager.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
Lines and/or markings shall be painted or placed upon the curb,
sidewalk and/or street adjacent to each parking meter for the purpose
of designating the parking space for which such meter is to be used.
Each vehicle parked adjacent to any parking meter shall be parked
wholly within the lines or markings so placed and applicable to such
meter. It shall be unlawful to park any vehicle across any such line
or marking, or to park any vehicle in such a position that such vehicle
shall not be wholly within the area so designated by such lines or
markings.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
When a parking space in any parking meter zone is parallel with
the adjacent curb or sidewalk, any vehicle parked in such parking
space shall be parked so that the front of such vehicle shall be nearest
to the parking meter; when a parking space in any parking meter zone
is diagonal to the curb or sidewalk, any vehicle parked in such parking
space shall be parked with the front of such vehicle nearest to such
meter.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
Any person or persons causing a vehicle to be parked in a parking
space shall deposit in the parking meter adjacent to such space coin
or coins of the United States of America according to the time limits
and rates indicated on the legend of such meter.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
The Borough Council of the Borough of Stroudsburg may, by resolution,
from time to time, revise and change parking rates and determine the
length of time that parking is permissible in any individual parking
space which is regulated by the meter immediately adjacent thereto;
and notice thereof shall be given to the public, stating the length
of time during which parking is permitted and the conditions regulating
the same, by either placing said notice on the parking meter or in
the immediate vicinity of said parking facility.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015; as amended by Ord. No. 1069, 3/5/2019;
and by Ord. No. 1143, 2/21/2023]
Any person or persons who cause a vehicle to remain in a parking
space after the prescribed time, for which coins or tokens have been
deposited, has elapsed are hereby determined to be illegally parked;
and each additional three hours that such person or persons permit
such vehicle to remain in an individual parking space after the prescribed
time for parking has elapsed is hereby declared to be an additional
violation. The fact that a vehicle is in an individual parking space
when the time signal on the parking meter regulating said parking
space shows that no parking is permitted, or that the time has expired,
shall be deemed prima facie evidence of the unlawful parking of said
vehicle by its operator and/or owner. The elapse of three hours from
the time reported on the notice to the owner or operator of a motor
vehicle shall be deemed prima facie evidence of additional violations
of the parking of said motor vehicle by the operator or owner.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
It shall be unlawful and a violation of this Part for any person
to deposit or to cause to be deposited in any parking meter any coin
for the purpose of increasing or extending the parking time of any
vehicle beyond the total legal parking time in a parking meter zone.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
It shall be unlawful and a violation of this Part
4 for any person to deface, tamper with, open or willfully break, destroy or impair the usefulness of any parking meter, or parking meter stand or coin depository installed under the provisions of this Part; provided, nothing herein shall apply to the servicing or opening of parking meters by officers, employees and/or police officers of the Borough under the direction of the Mayor and/or the Borough Council.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
1. It shall be the duty of the police officers and parking enforcement personnel of the Borough, in accordance with the instructions of the Borough Manager or Chief of Police, to report all violations of any provision of this Part
4, indicating, in each case:
A. The section thereof violated.
B. The location where such violation took place, including the parking
meter at which the vehicle was illegally parked.
C. The state and license number of such vehicle.
D. The date and time of violation.
E. The date and time of the notice of the violation.
F. Other facts deemed necessary for a clear understanding of the circumstances
attending the violation.
2. Every such police officer or parking enforcement person shall place
upon such vehicle a notice to the owner or driver thereof that such
vehicle was parked in violation of a provision of this Part and shall
indicate on the notice the date and time the notice was placed on
the vehicle.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
The Borough Council may suspend in whole or in part the parking meter regulations set forth in this Part
4 during such days and hours as may be designated by it.

1. Any person, firm, corporation or owner of any vehicle parked in violation of any provision of this Part
4, or aiding, abetting or assisting in the violation thereof, shall be assessed a fine in accordance with the following schedule:
A. Twenty dollars for each separate parking violation if paid within seven days of the time the notice of violation was issued, except violations of §
15-408 will have a fine of $30.
B. The owner or driver may discharge the fine by paying the sum of $20,
respectively, at the Municipal Building, 700 Sarah Street, within
the time limit.
C. If not paid within seven days of the date on the ticket, the fine will be increased to $40, except violations of §
15-408 will have a fine of $50.
D. If payment is not made within 14 days of the date on the ticket, prosecution will be initiated, and the fine will be increased to $75, except violations of §
15-407 will have a fine of $60, plus the cost of prosecution.
E. The penalty for violating §
15-409 depends on the extent of damage inflicted. The act may be punishable as a felony, misdemeanor or summary offense (18 P.S. § 3304).
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
The fines for violations deposited in the parking fine boxes
shall be collected regularly by the person or persons designated by
the Borough Council to make the collection from the coin boxes in
the parking meters, and said payments so collected shall be deposited
by the Borough Manager to the credit of the Borough.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
The Borough Council shall designate a person or persons who
shall collect the coins in the parking meters and fine boxes and deliver
the same to the depository. Each collector of costs from the parking
meters and from the fine boxes shall furnish a bond, in the sum of
at least $40,000, to the Borough for faithful performance thereof.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
The metered parking lots established by this Part shall be for
the use of passenger cars, passenger vans and pickup trucks only,
and it shall be unlawful for any person to park any other type of
vehicle in any of those lots.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015]
The Borough of Stroudsburg shall offer for sale to members of the public parking permits in the downtown area to be used in the municipal parking lots. The permit will allow for unrestricted parking at any meter within the metered lots, except for those days and times listed in §
15-401. The permits shall be sold on a quarterly basis at a fee set by the Borough Council. The Council of the Borough may, by resolution, from time to time, revise and change the fee for these permits.
[Ord. 1010, 11/10/2015; amended by Ord. No. 1158, 11/6/2023]
The permit shall be visible from the windshield while parked
in said lot. Failure to properly display the permit may result in
a parking violation and/or fine.
