Home My WebLink About2015_7_22_Local_Law_No_9 Local Law No. 9 – 2015 This local law shall be known as the “Restriction on Parking on a Section of the West Side of Palmer Avenue and the Expansion of Overnight Parking on a Section of the West Side of Palmer Avenue” Law. BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck Section 1 – Purpose: Palmer Avenue between Weaver Street and Richbell Road has traffic congestion issues due to the proximity of Central School, particularly when the students are being dropped off or picked up. During those periods especially there would be a distinct advantage in having two southbound lanes of traffic so that while the left lane serves as a queue for motor vehicles making a left turn into the Central School campus, the right lane can carry traffic southbound unimpeded by motor vehicles waiting to make left turns. There also is a need for overnight parking for both the residents of Palmer Avenue between Blossom Terrace and Richbell Road and the residents of the nearby Larchmont Acres apartments. This local law addresses both of these issues. Section 2 – Regulation of Parking on a section of Palmer Avenue: No motor vehicle shall be parked on that section of the west side of Palmer Avenue which lies between Blossom Terrace and Weaver Street. Section 3– Expansion of Overnight Parking on a section of Palmer Avenue: Motor vehicles may be parked on that section of the west side of Palmer Avenue which lies between Blossom Terrace and Richbell Road between the hours of 3:00 AM and 6:00 AM. Section 4 – Sign(s) to be Erected and Painting to be Done: An appropriate sign or signs shall be erected on and/or above, and/or striping shall be painted on the surface of Palmer Avenue indicating where and when parking is prohibited by this law. Section 5 – Severability: Should any provision of this Local Law be declared invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration of unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect any other provisions of this Local Law, which may be implemented without the invalid or unconstitutional provisions. Section 6 – Effective Date: This Local Law shall become effective upon filing with the Secretary of State.
