[Adopted 8-2-1971 by Ord. No. 249]
The provisions of this article imposing a time
limit on parking shall not relieve any person of the duty to observe
other more restrictive provisions prohibiting or limiting the stopping,
standing or parking of motor vehicles as set forth in N.J.S.A. 39:4-138
or any other New Jersey statute.
[Amended 12-6-1999 by Ord. No. 99-14]
A.
Upon the declaration of an emergency, there shall
be no parking upon streets or section of streets where temporary "EMERGENCY
NO PARKING" signs are displayed. The Mayor, Public Safety Director,
Chief of Police or, in the absence of any of the above, the ranking
police officer is authorized to declare an emergency and to direct
the posting of "EMERGENCY NO PARKING" signs when weather conditions,
accidents, fires or public celebrations dictate or require the avoidance
of hazards or other conditions which interfere with the free flow
of traffic. Whenever possible, notification that the "EMERGENCY NO
PARKING" signs are being or will be posted shall be given to the operator
or owner of any vehicle which has been parked prior to the posting
of signs.
B.
Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation
of this article shall be deemed a nuisance and a menace to the safe
and proper regulation of traffic, and any police officer may provide
for the removal of such vehicle. The owner shall pay the reasonable
costs of the removal and storage which may result from such removal
before regaining possession of the vehicle.
C.
The effectiveness of this article is contingent on
the proper signs being erected as required by law.
No person shall park a vehicle at any time on
