§ 207-34 Reserved use of public parking locations.

Residents of the Village may, at the discretion of the Village Manager, reserve exclusive use of parking spots available outside of regular business hours within public parking locations approved by the Board of Trustees, by submitting an application for approval to the Village Clerk and paying a fee, as determined by a resolution of the Village Board of Trustees and published in the Master Fee Schedule, and as may be amended from time to time. The Village Clerk shall promptly notify the Board of Trustees of all such applications.

§ 207-36 Scarborough Station.

Parking within the Scarborough municipal parking lot may include designated areas allowing time-limited parking and permit-enforced parking. Consistent with the powers of § 207-4, such designated parking areas shall be defined and marked under the direction of the Village Manager. The locations and parking capacity of each area may be changed from time to time.

Authorization for parking in any areas designated as time-limited or permit-enforced parking shall be offered for such fees and time periods as authorized by a resolution of the Board of Trustees at rates to be published in the Master Fee Schedule. Resident and nonresident rates may be established, and resident permits shall be issued only to current residents of the Village of Briarcliff Manor.

Vehicles parked in permit-enforced parking areas shall display proof of a duly issued permit. Such permit may be provided after submitting a written application on a form supplied by the Village Clerk, satisfactory proof of residency as determined by the Village Clerk, and payment of any required permit fee as may be determined by a resolution of the Village Board of Trustees and published in the Master Fee Schedule, which may be amended from time to time.

A replacement permit for any period shall be issued upon proof of loss of such permit, reapplication and payment of the required permit replacement fee, which shall be set forth by the Village Board of Trustees in the Master Fee Schedule, which may be amended. A permit may be transferred to a different vehicle owned by the same applicant or his or her spouse, upon reapplication and payment of the required transfer fee, which shall be set forth by the Village Board of Trustees in the Master Fee Schedule, which may be amended.

Where marked, vehicles in permit-enforced parking areas shall park with the rear of the car closest to the curb or rail, such that the permit is easily read from the vehicle front window by an enforcement officer traveling in the passing lane of the parking lot.
