Full Breakdown
Section 340.010 defines a 'curb loading zone' as a space adjacent to a curb reserved for vehicles loading or unloading freight, and it establishes two such zones on Historic 66 East: a forty-four-foot strip on the south side of the street in the 200 block, and a twelve-foot strip on the south side of the street in the 300 block. The Chief of Police is directed to fix the exact boundaries within those limits and mark each zone with signs and a painted yellow curb strip.
The zones operate from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. prevailing local time every day except Saturday and Sunday; during those hours, no vehicle may stop, stand or park in a curb loading zone for any purpose other than the expeditious loading or unloading of freight, and even a freight vehicle may not remain longer than twenty (20) minutes. A vehicle parked in a curb loading zone in violation of the section can be removed by city law enforcement or a contractor engaged for that purpose, and the owner must show proof of ownership and pay the removal and storage costs, plus any fine assessed, before reclaiming it.
The rule dates to Ord. No. 299 and was amended by Ord. No. 804 in 1994; general parking-ticket procedure and fines beyond removal costs run through § 340.020's Uniform Fine Schedule process in Waynesville Municipal Court.
Violations & Fines
Parking in a Historic 66 East curb loading zone for anything other than loading or unloading freight, or staying past the twenty-minute limit during the zone's 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. hours in effect every day except Saturday and Sunday, violates § 340.010. The vehicle can be towed by the city or its contractor, and the owner must pay removal and storage costs plus any fine before reclaiming it.
