(A) Parking permits shall be issued by the Police Department, Records Bureau, to a resident living in a residential zoned district, or a resident living in the developed business area, as defined by § 190.324 of this code of ordinances, for the fee of $5. This permit allows said resident permission to park his or her automobile in a restricted parking area or street, or a public parking lot located in the developed business area; provided, the parking lot is not closed or being used for any special event. Permits issued for the developed business area are limited to one permit per resident, and permits issued in a residential zoned district are limited to one permit per 20 feet of lot frontage. Residents shall make application to the Police Records Bureau setting forth all relevant information required by the Records Bureau, including a valid state driver’s license indicating the resident’s current address. Parking permits are valid as long as the resident maintains residency at the address for which the permit was granted. Parking permits are valid only as long as the ordinance remains in effect or until amended.
(B) The Records Bureau shall have the authority to grant a parking permit in the form of a suitable permit indicating the date of issuance, the residential street and signed by the Chief of Police. The holder shall then place the permit in the right corner of the windshield of his or her automobile; provided, however, that, such permit shall not grant the holder any privilege to park in any area where or when parking is prohibited; and, provided further that, no permit shall be issued to anyone residing in a multiple dwelling, except in the discretion of the Police and Fire Commission with regard to the number of residential units and the available space for parking, fronting such residence.
