§ 144-31.2 Residential permit parking.

[Added 6-19-1990 by Ord. No. 587, approved 6-19-1990]

Legislative intent. Regulation of parking is the responsibility and within the power of the Council of the Borough. With the growth of rental property within the Borough, a shortage of parking space has resulted in problems for the residents of the Borough. There exists a need to control parking and to provide a mechanism for the residents to be assured that parking will be available to them which is convenient to their residences. This is critical since many of the residents of the Borough are senior citizens and cannot walk long distances to a parking space from their residence. The Council of the Borough has determined that a permitted residential parking program will alleviate the pressures upon the existing parking space available and will assure to the residents of the Borough the availability of parking spaces where needed.
