The provisions of this chapter imposing a time limit on parking
shall not relieve any person of the duty to observe other more restrictive
provisions prohibiting or limiting the stopping, standing or parking
of vehicles as set forth in N.J.S.A. 39:4-138, any other New Jersey
statute or as hereinafter provided.
[Amended by Ord. No. 29/61]
A. Upon the declaration of an emergency, there shall be no parking upon
streets or sections of streets where temporary emergency no parking
signs are displayed. The Chief of Police or, in his absence, the ranking
police officer is authorized to declare an emergency and to direct
the posting of emergency no parking signs when weather conditions,
accidents, fire, public celebrations, etc., dictate or require the
avoidance of hazards or other conditions which interfere with the
free flow of traffic. Notification that emergency no parking signs
are being or will be posted shall be given to the operator or owner
of any vehicle which has been parked prior to the posting of the signs.
B. Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation of this section
shall be deemed a nuisance and menace to the safe and proper regulations
of traffic and any police officer may provide for the removal of such
vehicle. The owner shall pay the reasonable costs of removal and storage
which may result from such removal before regaining possession of
the vehicle.
C. The effectiveness of this section is contingent upon the signs being
erected as required by law.
