[Added 6-17-2013 by L.L. No. 6-2013]
(1)
Resident parking permits for Givens Lane lot. Any property owner
within the VC-BD District of the Village of Fishkill may obtain a
resident parking permit for overnight parking in the Givens Lane municipal
parking lot, subject to regulations and fees, as hereafter established.
Upon filing application and payment to the Village Clerk of an amount
set by resolution of the Board of Trustees, a permit shall be issued,
which shall be valid from October 1 to September 30 of each year.
Said application shall certify that the applicant is a Village property
owner within the VC-BD District. It shall further have attached proof
that the permitted vehicle(s) is a passenger automobile registered
with the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles having a Village
of Fishkill address within the VC-BD District. In the alternative,
proof that the vehicle to be permitted is on a long-term lease to
a Village resident within the VC-BD District shall be submitted with
the permit application.

VC-BD District compliance authorized; vehicle storage prohibited.
Current Village law prohibits parking in all municipal parking lots
from 2:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. The permit granted hereunder, shall allow
for parking in the Givens Lane municipal parking lot at all times,
including the prohibited time of 2:00 a.m. through 7:00 a.m. However,
no extended parking (i.e., for more than 24 consecutive hours) or
vehicle storage shall be allowed under this permit system. A parking
permit granted under this provision of the Village law may be used
to satisfy the residential parking requirement within the VC-BD District,
as set forth in other provisions of the Village Code.
(3)
Permit decals. A parking permit decal shall be issued to each permit
holder and must be affixed to the interior of the rear window on the
driver's side of the vehicle for which the permit has been issued.
All permitted vehicles are required to park facing into the parking
space, so that the permit decal is easily visible to enforcement authorities.
(4)
Partial year permit. Any property owner who applies for a parking
permit six months or more after October 1 will be charged a prorated
fee for a partial year, as set forth by resolution of the Board of
Trustees.

(a)
To park a vehicle in the permit parking lot without an overnight
parking permit decal issued under this section, during the period
from 2:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m.
(b)
For any person issued a permit decal to transfer the same or
cause the same to be transferred to any other person or vehicle in
violation of this article. This violation shall apply to both the
person so transferring and the person so receiving or benefitting
from the transfer.
(c)
For the purposes of this section, the owner of any vehicle parked
in violation hereof shall be presumed to have parked the vehicle unless
the person actually operating the vehicle is identified by the police
officer or other person issuing the parking ticket. In the event that
the person operating the vehicle is so identified, then the parking
ticket shall be issued to the operator.
