§ 4-7-1101. Restricted parking.¶
The Traffic Engineer is hereby authorized to place signs or markings indicating restricted parking where unlimited parking, in his opinion, would interfere with traffic or create a hazardous condition.
(a) When authorized signs are in place giving notice thereof, no person shall stop, stand or park any vehicle upon any street or alley for a period of time longer than specified on said signs.
(b) Each such period of time or fraction thereof that a vehicle is parked in excess of the maximum time limit specified on said signs shall constitute a separate violation; however, any violation occurring within a period in excess of the maximum time prescribed shall constitute but one (1) violation during each prescribed period of time.
(c) The civil penalty for violation of this section shall be established by resolution of the City Council.
