(a) All parking permits shall be displayed in the left rear window of the vehicle so as to be easily visible from outside the vehicle.
(b) A parking permit shall not guarantee or reserve a parking space within a designated parking permit area. A parking permit shall not authorize the standing or parking of any vehicle in such places and during such times as the stopping, standing or parking of vehicles is prohibited or set aside for specified types of vehicles, and shall not excuse the observance of any traffic regulation, other than the four (4) hour parking limit enforced in a residential parking permit area.
(c) Whenever the holder of a residential, visitor, or business parking permit, or the vehicle for which the parking permit was issued, no longer fulfills one or more the applicable provisions of this chapter controlling issuance, renewal or transfer of parking permits, the holder shall so notify the Mayor or his/her designee, who may then direct the holder to surrender the parking permit.
(d) Until its expiration, surrender or revocation, a parking permit shall remain valid for such time as the holder continues to reside or is employed within the designated parking permit area.
(e) A parking permit shall be valid only in the parking permit area for which it is issued.
(f) It shall be a violation of this chapter for the holder of a parking permit to fail to surrender it when directed to do so.
(g) It shall be a violation of this chapter for any person to represent in any fashion that a vehicle is entitled to a parking permit authorized by this chapter when it is not so entitled. The display of a parking permit on a vehicle not entitled to such a parking permit shall constitute such a representation.
(h) It shall be a violation of this chapter for any person to duplicate, or attempt to duplicate, by any means, a parking permit authorized by this chapter. It shall also be a violation of this chapter for any person to display on any vehicle such a duplicate parking permit.
