The Township, at its discretion, may provide, at convenient
and suitable locations in one or more of the unmetered parking lots,
reserved parking spaces for handicapped, and shall designate those
spaces by appropriate signs. It shall be unlawful and a violation
of this Part for any person to park in any such reserved parking space
any vehicle unless that vehicle bears or displays either a "handicapped
registration plate," a "handicapped parking placard," a "disabled
veteran registration plate," or a "disabled veteran placard." Provided,
all provisions, requirements and restrictions contained in the other
sections of this Part shall apply to vehicles lawfully parked in reserved
parking spaces for handicapped.
[Ord. 2016-1, 1/4/2016]
The unmetered parking lots established by §
15-701 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 kind or class of vehicle in any such lot.
[Ord. 2016-1, 1/4/2016]
The parking spaces in the unmetered parking lots shall be available for parking on a monthly rental basis only. The rental fee shall be fixed by the Township by a resolution and shall be for a calendar month or the part of a calendar month remaining after the rental arrangements are made. The rental fee shall be paid in advance to the Township Manager for the use of the Township, and after the first month shall be automatically renewable until the renter notifies the Township that he wishes to terminate the rental arrangements. At any time, however, the Township may, by amending §
15-701, discontinue provision of a specific unmetered parking lot or a portion of the parking spaces in any such lot, or may change any unmetered parking lot, or part of an unmetered parking lot, to a metered parking lot or to metered parking spaces. The rental parking spaces shall be assigned by the Township Manager. The name of the renter of a parking space and/or the numbers and/or letters on the registration tag of the vehicle entitled to be parked there shall be posted by the Township at the rental space or shall be painted on the surface of that parking space.
[Ord. 2016-1, 1/4/2016]
Any person who violates any provision of this Part, upon conviction,
shall be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $50 and costs. Provided,
it shall be the duty of the police officers and of parking enforcement
of the Township to report to the appropriate official all violations
of any provision of this Part, 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 Part. The notice shall contain instructions to the owner or
driver of the vehicle that if he will report to the office of the
Chief of Police and pay the sum of $25 within 48 hours after the time
of the notice, that act will save the violator from prosecution and
from payment of the fine and costs prescribed in the first sentence
of this section.
