Borough of Middletown, PA Parking Regulations

No person shall park any vehicle at any time where no-parking signs have been erected and/or where the curbs have been painted yellow to indicate no parking.

No person shall park a vehicle, or permit it to stand, whether attended or unattended, in any of the following places:

(1)

Upon any bridge or in front of any theater or theater exit.

(2)

Within 30 feet upon the approach to any stop sign.

(3)

Within 15 feet of a fire hydrant.

(4)

On a crosswalk or within 20 feet of a crosswalk.

(5)

In front of a driveway (private or public) or garage.

(a)

This includes the drive approach apron or the alley radius. The phrase "in front of" includes all that area wherein the presence of a parked vehicle would obstruct free, safe exit from or entrance to such driveway. It is found as a fact that a completely unobstructed and safe exit from the entrance to such driveway in the light of the driveway and street or alley widths and conditions associated therewith, including turning and sight hazards, throughout the Borough of Middletown requires that there be no parking within three feet on both sides thereof.

(b)

The parking in front of a driveway thus prohibited includes an area, along the curb or cartway of the street or alley with which it connects, within three feet on both sides of the driveway. With respect to such three-foot sections, enforcement may be implemented in the light of practicalities reflected in the following severable considerations. The resident owner (or tenant in possession with the owner's permission) may paint the curb yellow in accordance with precise measurement of said three-foot section and specifications provided by the Code Enforcement Officer. Said owner, or tenant, may notify the police of violations; and in the absence of such notice, the police shall have no duty of surveillance, investigation or ticketing. The only defense before the District Justice of one who parks a vehicle so that it projects within or occupies such a three-foot section shall be that such person had the consent of said owner or tenant.

(6)

Within an intersection or less than 25 feet from an intersection.

(7)

On a sidewalk.

(8)

On the roadway side of any vehicle stopped or parked at the edge or curb of any street.

[Added 8-1-1988 by Ord. No. 975]

(9)

Against the flow of traffic.

[Added 8-1-1988 by Ord. No. 975]

(3)

Parking or standing of a vehicle for or during the draining or spilling of antifreeze, oil, grease or any substance, including chemical substances of any kind, deleterious to street paving or to public health, onto street paving, or the introduction or action tending to introduction of any such substance or any contaminant into the Borough storm drainage system.
