A. Purpose of ordinance. The City Council finds that restricted time parking regulations are designed to require movement of vehicles from designated street parking locations to enable as many members of the public as possible to have access to prime street parking locations. Some members of the public attempt to avoid purposes of restricted time parking by moving their vehicles only enough to cover any markings placed by parking enforcement personnel or by moving their vehicles only to return within a few minutes to the same or approximately the same parking spot. It is necessary to provide fair and equal access to limited public resources and assets such as prime parking locations. B. Posted time limitation. It is unlawful for any person to: 1. Park a vehicle on the same time restricted parking block face for longer than the posted time limitation, or, having left a parking spot located on a time -restricted parking block face, reenter the parking anywhere along the same street block face within the next thirty minutes following the vacation of the place of initial parking; or 2. Remove a temporary mark placed by an enforcement officer except that which may naturally occur as a result of driving the vehicle. C. Definitions. 1. "Block face" shall mean the side of the street where the vehicle was parked between two intersecting streets. An alley shall not be considered a street. 2. "Street" and "alley" shall have the meanings set forth in Section 12.04.490, Salt Lake City Code, and Section 12.04.030, Salt Lake City Code, respectively, or their successor provisions. D. Civil penalty --Continuing violation. Violation of this ordinance shall constitute a civil violation. It shall be a separate offense for each violation of the posted time limitations. E. Every driver about to enter a parking space being vacated shall stop his or her vehicle and wait to the rear of the vehicle in the actual process of vacating the parking space, and having so waited shall have prior right to the parking space over all other drivers. 2 F.
