§ 19-226. Free parking at meters for gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles.

(a)

The director of downtown operations is to adopt a system of registering gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles (hybrids). On application by the owner, the director will register hybrids and issue decals, placards, or other evidence of registration to be affixed to or displayed on the hybrid. The director is to establish rules for the proper display of the evidence of registration.

(b)

Registered hybrids properly displaying the evidence of registration may park without charge at all parking meters maintained by the city, but only for the maximum duration of the meter. Hybrids remaining at a meter beyond its maximum duration may be ticketed in the same manner as other vehicles with expired meters. Meter charges are not abated for hybrids or other vehicles displaying evidence of registration issued to a different vehicle.
