Editor's Note: Original § 303, Parking prohibited
during certain hours, which immediately followed this subsection,
was repealed by Ord. No. 97-3.
A.
The Mayor may, from time to time, upon request of any handicapped
resident of the Borough, and after inquiry thereunto, designate space
along any Borough street, which space shall be as close as possible
to the residence of such handicapped person, as being reserved for
parking by handicapped persons whose vehicles bear handicapped registration
plates issued by the Department of Transportation and shall cause
to be erected at such handicapped parking space signs indicating the
restriction, such sign being of a type approved by the Department
of Transportation and installed in conformity with the regulations
of the Department.
B.
Should the Mayor learn of the death of any handicapped person for
whose benefit he had designated a parking space for utilization by
handicapped persons whose vehicles bear handicapped registration plates
or of the departure of any such handicapped person from the residence
in close proximity to which such designated handicapped parking space
is located, he may rescind such designation, thereby returning the
subject parking space to the status that it held prior to designation,
with any and all signs marking it as a handicapped parking space to
be removed.
No person shall park or leave unattended a vehicle on private
property without the consent of the owner or other person in control
or possession of the property except:
A.
In the case of emergency or disablement of the vehicle, in which
case the operator shall arrange for the removal of the vehicle as
soon as possible; and
B.
In the case of private parking lots unless such lots are posted to
notify the public of any parking restrictions and the operator of
the vehicle violates such posted restrictions. For the purposes of
this section, "private parking lot" means a parking lot open to the
public or used for parking without charge or a parking used for parking
with charge. To be sufficient, posting shall be in accordance with
regulations promulgated by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.
[Amended 8-8-2013 by Ord.
