It shall be unlawful for any person to fail to park within the designated area, or fail or neglect to so deposit the proper coin or coins.
Nothing in this division shall prevent the owner or operator of a vehicle from parking his vehicle in a space without depositing a coin, where it appears that the maximum legal parking limit has not run since the deposit of the previous coin.
Upon the deposit of coins in a parking meter pursuant to this division, a parking meter space may be then used by a vehicle during the legal parking limit provided by this Code and other ordinances of the Town, and the vehicle shall be considered as unlawfully parked if it remains in said space beyond the legal parking limit, or when the parking meter displays a signal showing illegal parking.
It shall be unlawful for any person to cause or permit any vehicle registered in his name to be unlawfully parked in violation of this division.
It shall be unlawful to deposit or cause to be deposited in any parking meter, any slug, device, or metallic substitute for a coin of the United States.
It shall be unlawful for any person to deface, injure, tamper with, open, willfully break or destroy a parking meter.
It shall be the duty of each traffic patrolman, or such other officer as shall be so instructed by the county police department, in his beat or district, to take the number of any meter at which any vehicle is overparked, as provided in this division and the state vehicle tag number of such vehicle, and make complaint therefor in the District Court, Fourth District, Station Plaza, Hicksville, together with the length of time during which the vehicle is parked in violation of any of the provisions of this division, as well as any other facts, a knowledge of which is necessary to a thorough understanding of the circumstances attending such violations.
Any offense against any of the provisions of this division shall be punishable pursuant to § 233-2 of this chapter.
