The parking services manager is authorized to issue a permit for parking meter hoods upon payment of the fee as set forth herein and upon the following conditions:

A. Application shall be made to the parking services manager on such forms as are prescribed. The applicant shall set forth the applicant’s business and the necessity for such permit. The parking services manager shall investigate the facts as necessary.

B. If it appears that a necessity exists, the parking services manager may authorize the issuance of such permit under the conditions prescribed in this section.

C. Upon issuance of the permit, the permittee shall be issued a parking meter hood to be used in covering any “nonhandicapped” parking meter. The parking services manager shall have responsibility for determining the number and location of meter hoods to be issued in response to permit requests, taking into account the needs of the application and the operational needs of the parking system.

D. Upon entering any parking meter space available, the permittee shall place the hood over the parking meter and lock the same and shall indicate on the identification card the exact place where the commercial service work is being performed and the identity of the permittee using the hood.

E. The permittee shall not place the hood over any meter when the space is occupied by another vehicle, and shall, before vacating the space at the conclusion of the work, remove the hood. The hood shall not be allowed to remain in place after 6:00 p.m. on any day, or any time on Sundays. It shall not be used during hours when parking or stopping in the parking meter space is prohibited. No vehicle licensed as a passenger car shall be parked in the space controlled by the hooded parking meter unless so authorized by the parking services manager on the face of the permit.

F. The parking services manager may revoke any permit if the parking meter hood is used for any purpose other than that authorized in this section or for any violation of this chapter. Upon revocation, the hood shall immediately be returned to the parking services office and the deposit, as set forth in subsection (G) of this section, shall be forfeited. Any misuse of a parking meter hood shall be reported to the parking services manager.

G. If a hood or other property issued with the hood becomes lost or destroyed or so defaced that it is no longer usable, the parking services manager shall determine, and the permittee shall pay, the replacement cost of the lost or damaged item. [Ord. 2014-11-060 § 3; Ord. 1999-04-020].
