§ 72.079 PERMIT PARKING.

Eureka Zoning Code · 2026-06 edition · updated 2026-07-25 · Eureka

Upon the recommendation of the Transportation Safety Commission, the City Manager shall have the authority to define and set aside any portion of any city-owned public parking facility for permit parking and to issue permits therefor in accordance with the following provisions:

(A) The maximum number of permits to be issued upon any lot shall be limited to a number which the City Manager determines will not substantially impair the use of such lot by non-permit parkers.

(B) The City Manager may issue parking meter permits to applicants therefor upon the payment of a fee in an amount to be determined by the City Manager based upon the average receipts from meters in parking lots for a period equivalent to that covered by the permit. Such permit shall designate the parking lot and the parking space for which it is issued and shall be affixed to the rear window of the vehicle for which it is issued. Such permit may contain such instructions as to its use as may be deemed appropriate by the City Manager. Applications for such permits shall be made on forms furnished by the City Manager.

(C) The authority granted to the City Manager by the provisions of this section shall include the authority on any city-owned parking lot to convert metered spaces to unmetered spaces and unmetered spaces to metered spaces, as may be necessary to effectuate the purposes of this section.

(D) The holder of a valid parking permit, properly displayed, may park in the space on the lot for which such permit is issued, but only in such space, without further payment or deposit of coins.

(E) The City Manager may revoke any parking meter permit for any of the following reasons:

(1) When the person to whom such permit has been issued has failed to pay the fee therefor as provided in this section; or

  • (2) When the City Manager determines that such permit parking substantially impairs the use of such parking lot by nonpermit holders.
