The Public Works Director is hereby authorized to issue a permit to allow a business to utilize a valet parking service within the public right-of-way only if said business and valet service fully comply with all required conditions and limitations of said permit. The Public Works Director is hereby further authorized to designate a specified length of curb for passenger-loading purposes only for use by the valet service, along any commercial street in the immediate proximity of the business to which the permit is granted, and such designation may be limited to specified hours of the day and to specified days of the week. If a valet service precludes the use of any metered parking space during the hours that metered parking is in effect, the valet service shall reimburse the City of Inglewood for all lost meter revenue based on the hourly parking rate of the meter for the affected hours. Failure to comply with any condition or limitation of said permit or any violation of any provision of the Inglewood Municipal Code or the California Vehicle Code may result in the temporary suspension or permanent revocation of the valet parking permit by the Public Works Director. The Public Works Department shall utilize approved regulations, conditions and fees for valet parking applications and permits, provided that the Public Works Director may impose additional conditions upon the issuance of the permit to mitigate or prevent actual or potential problems affecting the public welfare that may arise due to the individual location or other circumstance of each permit application. Any determination by the Public Works Director to impose additional conditions upon a valet parking permit or to suspend or revoke a valet parking permit may be appealed to the Parking and Traffic Commission.
