The Borough Council, 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 article, 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
article shall apply to vehicles lawfully parked in reserved parking
spaces for handicapped.
The unmetered parking lots owned and or operated by the Borough
of Irwin 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.
Every vehicle parked in an unmetered parking lot shall be parked
wholly within the lines bounding or marking the individual parking
space assigned to that vehicle and shall be parked headed into the
parking space. It shall be unlawful for any person:
A. To park a vehicle in a space not rented by him.
B. To park a vehicle otherwise than as required by this section.
C. To park a vehicle elsewhere than in an individual parking space,
the prohibited areas including, but not limited to, the access and
exit driveways and turning and maneuvering spaces.
All notices placed upon or attached to any motor vehicle as
a result of a parking violation under this section shall instruct
the owner or driver that they shall, upon conviction, be sentenced
to pay a fine of not more than $25, and costs, provided it shall be
the duty of the police officers and of parking enforcement personnel
of the Borough to report to the appropriate official all violations
of any provision of this article, indicating, in each case, the provision
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 article. The notice shall contain instructions to the owner
or driver of the vehicle that if they will report to the Borough of
Irwin Deposit Box and pay the sum of $10 within 15 days 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.
