   (a)   A licensee shall:
      (1)   Allow only employees and independent contractors who hold a valid state driver's license, and who are covered by the insurance required by § 30-99 of this article, to operate any vehicle in connection with the valet parking service;
      (2)   Operate the valet parking service in a manner that does not:
         a.   Use or occupy more of the public right-of-way than is allowed by the valet parking license;
         b.   Obstruct a pedestrian's use of a sidewalk;
         c.   Obstruct a vehicle operator's ability to see any part of an intersecting road;

      (4)   Neither place nor allow the placement of a sign advertising the valet parking service in the public right-of-way that exceeds a base dimension of 18 inches, except as provided for under this section or § 30-101.

      (9)   Attach a sign to the valet parking service stand with the licensee's name and contact phone number; and
      (10)   Provide appropriate reflective material to an employee who enters the street while on duty, and an employee shall be required to wear the reflective material while on duty.
   (b)   Except for the authorized hours of operation of a valet parking service, spaces reserved by the valet parking service shall be available for use by the general public on a first-come, first served basis in accordance with posted signs and other traffic-control devices, except where parking is restricted or prohibited.
