§ 19-432. Definitions.

When used in this article, the following terms have the meanings ascribed to them below:

Block means a street segment between two (2) cross streets and with no intervening streets crossing both blockfaces.

Blockface means one side of a block with no intervening streets. Because blocks may have intervening cross streets that do not penetrate both blockfaces, blocks may have more than two (2) blockfaces.

Commuter vehicle means any vehicle other than a resident vehicle.

Curbside-parking space means twenty (20) linear feet of curb, excluding those portions of the curb where the parking of any motor vehicle is not permitted.

Director means the director of the Center City Development Office.

Parking official means the person in the Center City Development Office so designated by the director.

Residential permit parking zone means the area designated for resident-only parking during specific hours and days of the week.

Temporary residential parking permit means a temporary permit issued by the city authorizing curbside parking in a residential-permit parking zone during the time curbside parking is otherwise restricted.

Resident means one who lives in a residential segment.

Residential parking permit means a permit issued under the authority of this article.

Residential segment means one or more blockfaces consisting entirely of residences, whether single or multifamily. A non-residential use on a blockface does not prevent the blockface from being residential if the non-residential use does not front on the blockface.

Senior engineer means the traffic or other similar engineer overseeing traffic regulations in the transportation and capital improvements department or other similar department should it be renamed.

Chronic commuter-parking problem is when at least twenty-five (25) percent of occupied spaces in a proposed residential permit parking zone are not traced to a resident license plate during the parking survey period.
