1. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law to the contrary, the
village board of trustees of the village of Port Chester may, by
adoption of a local law or ordinance, provide for a residential parking
permit system and fix and require the payment of fees applicable to
parking within the area in which such parking system is in effect in
accordance with the provisions of this section.

2. Such residential parking permit system may only be established
within the area of the village which shall mean that area generally

easterly on Franklin Street to South Regent Street; thence running
northerly on South Regent Street to Westchester Avenue; thence running
easterly on Westchester Avenue to Pearl Street; thence running southerly
on Pearl Street to Boston Post Road; thence running southerly on Boston
Post Road to the southern border of the village of Port Chester; thence
running .15 miles westerly and then northerly along the border between
the village of Port Chester and the city of Rye to a point where it
intersects with Franklin Street, the place of beginning. For the
purposes of this subdivision, permit parking may be implemented on both
sides of any street whose center line is herein utilized as a boundary
description; provided, however, that except for the reference to state
highways and to Westchester Avenue and Pearl Street solely for the
purposes of delineating the boundaries of the area described in this
subdivision, the provisions of this section shall not apply to any state
highway maintained by the state nor to Westchester Avenue or Pearl
Street.

3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no permit shall be required on
streets or portions of streets where the adjacent properties are zoned
for commercial/retail use.

system shall:

hundred four-a of this chapter shall be exempt from any permit
requirement; and

(c) provide the times of the day and days of the week during which
permit requirements shall be in effect; and

(d) make not less than fifteen percent of all spaces within the permit
area available to non-residents and shall provide short-term parking of
not less than ninety minutes in duration in such area; and

(e) provide the schedule of fees to be paid for such permits; and

(f) provide that such fees shall be credited to the general fund of
the village.

5. No ordinance shall be adopted pursuant to this section until a
public hearing thereon has been had in the same manner as required for
public hearings on a local law pursuant to the municipal home rule law.
