Borough Council at its discretion, may provide, at convenient and suitable locations in the unmetered parking lots established in § 263-25, reserved parking spaces for handicapped, and shall designate those spaces by appropriate signs. It shall be unlawful, and a violation of this article, for any person to park in any such reserved parking space, any vehicle unless that vehicle bears or displays either: a "handicapped registration plate," a "handicapped parking placard," a "disabled veteran registration plate," or a "disabled veteran placard." Provided: all provisions, requirements and restrictions contained in the other sections of this chapter shall apply to vehicles lawfully parked in reserved parking spaces for handicapped.
It shall be unlawful for any person to park a vehicle, or to
allow a vehicle to remain parked in any unmetered parking lot:
The unmetered parking lots established by § 263-25 of this chapter shall be for the use of motorcycles, passenger cars, passenger vans and pickup trucks only, and it shall be unlawful for any person to park any other kind or class of vehicle in any such lot.
Every vehicle parked in an unmetered parking lot shall be parked
wholly within the lines bounding or marking the individual parking
space assigned to that vehicle, and shall be parked headed into the
parking space. It shall be unlawful for any person:
A.
To park a vehicle in a space not rented by him;
B.
To park a vehicle otherwise than as required by this section; or
C.
To park a vehicle elsewhere than in an individual parking space,
the prohibited areas including, but not limited to, the access and
exit driveways and turning and maneuvering spaces.
The parking spaces in the unmetered parking lots shall be available for parking on a monthly rental basis only. The rental fee shall be fixed by Borough Council from time to time and shall be for a calendar month or the part of a calendar month remaining after the rental arrangements are made. The rental fee shall be paid in advance to the Borough Secretary-Treasurer, for the use of the Borough of Muncy, and after the first month shall be automatically renewable until the renter notifies the Borough that he wishes to terminate the rental arrangements. At any time, however, the Borough may, by amending § 263-25 of this chapter, discontinue provision of a specific unmetered parking lot or a portion of the parking spaces in any such lot, or may change any unmetered parking lot, or part of an unmetered parking lot, to a metered parking lot or to metered parking spaces. The rental parking spaces shall be assigned by the Borough Secretary-Treasurer. The name of the renter of a parking space and/or the numbers and/or letters on the registration tag of the vehicle entitled to be parked there shall be posted by the Borough at the rental space or shall be painted on the surface of that parking space.
A.
The police officer or other person making the report shall also place on or attach to the vehicle a notice to the owner or driver of the vehicle that the vehicle was parked in violation of this chapter, and instructing the owner or driver that if he will report to the office of the Chief of Police and pay, for the use of the Borough of Muncy, the sum of $5 within 48 hours after the time of the notice, or will place the sum of $5 enclosed within the envelope provided, in any of the special parking fine boxes installed at various locations within the Borough of Muncy, within that time limit, that act will save the violator from prosecution and from payment of the fine prescribed in Subsection B hereof.
B.
Any person who violates any provision of this article and who fails
to pay the fine set forth in this section shall be cited within 15
days of the violation and upon conviction, be sentenced to pay a fine
of not more than $15 and costs.
