[Ord. #2814 § I]
The Township Council further finds that one factor threatening
the safety, health and attractiveness of the Township's neighborhoods
is the excessive and burdensome practice of nonresidents parking their
motor vehicles for extended periods of time in certain neighborhoods
within the Township. This practice is caused in part by the implementation
by neighboring communities of no overnight parking within their city
limits. As such, the number of nonresident motor vehicles attempting
to park within certain residential areas in the Township of Belleville
often exceeds the number of available parking spaces. A preferential
parking system for certain neighborhoods within the Township will
help to reduce the burden of those excess vehicles on the residents
of those neighborhoods and thus promote the general welfare of the
Township.
[Ord. #2814 § II]
For the purposes of this section, the following words shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in this section as follows:
Shall mean that a person pays rent or other remuneration
for the use of a parcel of real property located in a designated residential
parking permit area, as the person's residence or place of business.
Shall mean an automobile, truck, recreation vehicle, motorcycle,
or other motor driven or self-propelled form of transportation.
Shall mean that a person has at least one-quarter interest
in a parcel of real property within a residential parking permit area.
Shall mean a motor vehicle parked in a residential area in
which it is registered with the State of New Jersey, Department of
Motor Vehicles.
Shall mean a residential district determined by the Township
Council to be such area affected by nonresident motor vehicle parking
as a result of other municipalities restricting overnight parking.
[Ord. #2814 § III, § XV; Ord. #2824;
Ord. #3097 § I]
The Township Council has determined that residential areas within
the Township of Belleville would benefit from residential parking
permits within those areas. In accordance with the provisions of this
section, the areas described in Schedule A attached to and made part
of this section are hereby designated residential parking permit areas.
From time to time the Township Council may review the list of designated
residential parking permit areas and may make changes as deemed appropriate
by the Township Council. The Township Council may add or delete any
areas it deems appropriate in the interest of promoting the general
welfare of the Township of Belleville. In determining whether nonresident
vehicle parking sufficiently impacts a residential district within
the Township of Belleville, the Township Council shall consider factors
including but not limited to the following:
a.
The extent that legal on-street parking spaces are occupied by motor
vehicles during the period proposed for parking restrictions.
b.
The extent that vehicles parking in the area during the period proposed
for parking restrictions are commuter vehicles.
c.
The extent that residents cannot obtain adequate curbside parking
adjacent to or near their residence because of widespread use of available
curbside parking spaces by nonresident vehicles.
d.
The effect on the safety of the residents from intensive nonresident
vehicle parking.
e.
The extent that the designation of a residential parking permit area
would be likely to reduce traffic congestion and other problems related
to nonresident parking.
f.
The extent and need for parking by the general public in a residential
district.
g.
The desire of the residents in the residential parking permit areas
for the institution of a residential parking permit system.
h.
The extent that no reasonable alternative is feasible or practicable
that would reduce traffic congestion and other problems related to
nonresident parking without unduly impacting surrounding residential
areas.
