[Added 2-23-1988 by Ord. No. 83-3; amended in its entirety 7-26-1988 by Ord. No. 88-26]
The Township Committee hereby finds that the lack of enforceable traffic and parking regulations in the Nelson's Corner Shopping Center, which is a privately owned commercial complex containing parking yards and parking places that are open to the public or to which the public is invited, has contributed significantly to traffic and parking conditions in the Shopping Center that pose a substantial threat to the health, safety and welfare of motorists and pedestrians therein. It is therefore the purpose of the Township Committee by this article to regulate traffic and the parking of vehicles in the parking yards and parking places of the Shopping Center, pursuant to N.J.S.A. 39:4-197, and thereby to promote the public health, safety and welfare.
