(b) Exception/Exemption Permitted Under Certain Circumstances. An owner or driver of a commercial vehicle which is used in the servicing of medical facilities or emergency services facilities or the equipment providing emergency power to such facilities and who is subject to being “on call” 24 hours a day and seven days a week to perform such services, may apply to the Mayor or his designee for a specific exemption to this parking prohibition for the property owned or occupied by such person. In determining whether to grant the exception/exemption requested, the Mayor or his designee shall consider the following:
(1) That there is a driveway made of concrete, asphalt or some other suitable smooth hard surface in good condition and good repair on which the vehicle is to be parked.
(2) That when parked, no portion of such motor vehicle will materially impair the visibility of drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists or others using the road, sidewalk or other portions of the public right of way.
(3) That the request is accompanied by supporting documentation of necessity.
(4) That no vehicle which is part of a semi tractor-trailer combination may be issued an exception/exemption.
(5) That no more than one exception/exemption for one vehicle may be issued for any property. (Ord. 2014-75. Passed 10-6-14.)
