The provisions of this chapter 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 vehicles as set
forth in N.J.S.A. 39:4-138, any other New Jersey statute or as hereinafter
provided.
[Amended by Ord. No. 1994-9]
A.
Upon the declaration of an emergency, there shall be
no parking upon streets or sections of streets where temporary emergency no
parking signs are displayed. The Chief of Police or, in his absence, the emergency
management coordinator is authorized to declare an emergency and to direct
the posting of emergency no parking signs when weather conditions, accidents,
fire, public celebrations, etc., dictate or require the avoidance of hazards
or other conditions which interfere with the free flow of traffic. Notification
that 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 the signs.
B.
Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation
of this chapter shall be deemed a nuisance and menace to the safe and proper
regulations of traffic and any police officer may provide for the removal
of such vehicle. The owner shall pay the reasonable costs of removal and storage
which may result from such removal before regaining possession of the vehicle.
C.
The effectiveness of this subsection is contingent upon
the signs being erected as required by law.
No person shall park a vehicle at any time upon any of the streets or
parts thereof described to Schedule I attached to and make a part of this
chapter.
No person shall park a vehicle between the hours specified in Schedule
II of any day (except Sundays and public holidays) upon any of the streets
or parts of streets described in Schedule II attached to and made a part of
this chapter.
No person shall stop or stand a vehicle between the hours specified
in Schedule III of any day (except Sundays and public holidays) upon any of
the streets or parts of streets described in Schedule III attached to and
made a part of this chapter.
No person shall park a vehicle for longer than the time limit shown
in Schedule IV at any time between the hours listed in Schedule IV of any
day (except Sundays and public holidays) upon any of the streets or parts
of streets described in Schedule IV attached to and made a part of this chapter.
Whenever snow has fallen and the accumulation is such that it covers
the street or highway, no vehicle shall be parked on the streets or highways
described in Schedule V attached to and made a part of this chapter. This
parking prohibition shall remain in effect after the snow has ceased until
the streets have been plowed sufficiently and to the extent that parking will
not interfere with the normal flow of traffic.
