Newark CO §452.03(b) prohibits parking in front of any public or private driveway. Within 5 feet of a driveway intersection with a public street, parking is also banned under §452.03(c). Driveway construction permits are issued by the Engineering Department.
Section 452.03(b) bars parking in front of any driveway entrance (public or private) - applies even to the driveway's own owner. Section 452.03(c) extends the no-parking zone 5 feet on either side of any public or private drive where it meets a street, and 10 feet either side of an alley. New driveway aprons and curb cuts require a permit from the Newark Engineering Department (Ch. 1054 stormwater management standards and driveway-apron specifications apply). The Zoning Code also requires off-street parking for new residential construction under Ch. 1290 (Off-Street Parking and Loading Regulations).
Blocking-driveway tickets are parking infractions under §407.10. Building a driveway without an engineering permit is a zoning/engineering violation subject to §698.02 penalties (up to $250 first offense).
