A. 
The public works department shall issue permits for preferential parking and collect all fees. No permit will be issued to any applicant until that applicant has paid all of his or her outstanding parking citations, including all civil penalties and related fees. Permit fees shall cover the cost of establishing and maintaining the preferential parking zone. These fees shall be set by city council.
B. 
Duration. Preferential parking permits issued pursuant to this section shall remain in effect for a period of one calendar year or fraction thereof, or as long as the permit holder continues to reside in the dwelling unit for which the permit was issued or until the preferential parking zone is eliminated, whichever period of time is less. In the event the preferential parking zone is eliminated, or the permit holder moves from the preferential parking zone, or any other circumstance under which the permit is not used the full period it is valid, no refund of permit fees will be issued.
C. 
Preferential Parking Permits. Applicants shall be residents required to present proof of residency in the Heathercliff Condominiums or the Dume View Villas Condominiums. All preferential parking permits shall be imprinted with the permit number of the resident applicant. No more than three preferential parking permits will be issued per dwelling unit per year.
D. 
Additional Permit for Nonresident Caregiver. Notwithstanding the three permit limitation, the director of public works may issue one additional preferential parking permit per dwelling unit upon proof that the additional permit will be used exclusively by a nonresident caregiver who is attending to the care of a resident at the household during the hours the parking is restricted.
E. 
Availability of Parking. A preferential parking zone permit shall not guarantee or reserve to the holder thereof an on-street parking space within the designated preferential parking zone.
F. 
Restrictions and Conditions. Each permit issued pursuant to this section shall be subject to each and every condition and restriction set forth in this chapter including conditions or restrictions that may be altered or amended from time to time. The issuance of such permit shall not be construed to be a permit for, or approval of, any violation of this code, California Vehicle Code, or any other law or regulation.
(Ord. 381 § 2, 2014)
Upon application, the director of public works may grant a hardship exemption from the parking permit fee. The application shall be on the form provided by the public works department and shall include sufficient evidence to establish whether the applicant qualifies for an exemption pursuant to this section and shall be signed by the applicant under penalty of perjury. The director of public works shall grant the exemption for any qualified applicant.
A. 
Qualification. To qualify for the permit fee hardship exemption, the applicant must satisfy all of the following criteria:
1. 
The applicant must present adequate evidence that he or she would qualify for the California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) program;
2. 
The combined value of assets owned by the applicant must not exceed $150,000 excluding the value of the residence itself;
3. 
No person other than the applicant can declare the applicant as a dependent for purposes of federal or state taxes.
B. 
In the event that the applicant, after receiving the hardship exemption, at any time ceases to satisfy all of the foregoing criteria, from that point on, the applicant will not be qualified to receive, and shall not receive, the hardship exemption.
