[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]
