Denial, honoring and revocation of permits

(a)

Permits provided for in this division may be denied where:

(1)

The vehicle does not comply with a requirement stated in this chapter;

(2)

The applicant has failed to appear in court when summoned for a parking violation or failed to pay a fine or charge for a parking violation;

(3)

As to a special parking permit, the number of stops made each day for loading and unloading and freight purposes are sufficiently low enough to warrant use of spaces specifically prescribed for such use in other sections of this Code; and

(4)

Granting the permit presents a risk to public safety, traffic flow and management, or other public purpose or otherwise interferes with the performance of the city's duties and obligations.

(b)

Permits provided for in this division shall not be honored and may be revoked if any of the following non-exhaustive regulations are not observed:

(1)

The permit must be current and properly displayed on the front dash in front of the driver, by hang-tag on the vehicle's rear-view mirror, or displayed on the rear window and be fully visible from the outside of the vehicle. It is unlawful for the operator of a vehicle to improperly display or display an expired or altered permit as authorization to park in a metered parking space without actuating by making payment of authorized legal tender by manual or electronic means into a pay station or via digital payment platform.

(2)

It is unlawful to display a permit in such a manner that the pertinent information is obscured.

(3)

It is unlawful to display a permit in a vehicle other than the one for which it was issued.

(4)

It is unlawful to exceed the parking time limit authorized by the permit.

(5)

It is unlawful to use or attempt to use such permit for other than its purpose allowed in this chapter.

(6)

A vehicle displaying a permit must be parked in a legal manner and in a designated parking space.

(c)

For any of the following reasons, a permit parking only zone permit may be revoked by the parking division after providing notice to the holder of permit of the reasons for such revocation and providing an opportunity for the pass holder to respond to the parking division:

(1)

Providing false information when applying for the permit.

(2)

If a permit is affixed to a vehicle for which it was not issued, it may be immediately revoked by order of the parking division. Such revocation immediately voids the permit.

(3)

If a permit issued to an individual for a resident vehicle is revoked to this section, then that individual or anyone residing in the same residence with that individual shall not be permitted to apply for a permit parking only zone permit for a two-year period unless good cause can be shown that the act resulting in the revocation was unintentional.
