Full Breakdown
Parking on Village of Hamburg streets is controlled by Article III of Chapter 229, adopted by the Board of Trustees as L.L. No. 3-1998. The article works through numbered schedules, and each schedule is part of the section it supports. Section 229-21 bars parking during the hours listed in Schedule XVII (§ 229-52), and that schedule covers all streets, both sides, from 1:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. from November 1 to April 1.
Section 229-24 sets time limits through Schedule XX (§ 229-55). The Buffalo Street entries, for example, read 2 hours, 8:00 to 6:00 p.m., all except Sundays and holidays. The chapter defines holidays as New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
Where angle parking is authorized under § 229-25 and Schedule XXI, vehicles must park at the designated angle and only within the painted stall lines, with the front nearest the curb.
The same article layers stricter restrictions by schedule: § 229-17 bars parking at any time, § 229-18 bars stopping, and § 229-19 bars standing, while §§ 229-22 and 229-23 do the same during listed hours. Schedule XV, for example, lists Anderson Place, west side, from Highland Avenue to Norwood Avenue. Section 229-16 excuses a stop needed to avoid conflict with other traffic or to follow a police officer or official traffic control device.
On private land, § 229-26(D) bars parking any vehicle, trailer or boat on a required front lawn except on a paved driveway, and the paved driveway area cannot exceed 40% of the required front lawn. The Department of Public Works installs and maintains the traffic control devices (§ 229-2).
Violations & Fines
Section 229-35 sets the penalties for a traffic infraction under this chapter. A first conviction carries a fine of not more than $250 or imprisonment for not more than 15 days, or both. A second within 18 months carries up to $500 or 45 days, and a third or subsequent conviction within 18 months carries up to $1000 or 90 days. The Village Hall handicapped space carries $100 for a first offense and $150 after (§ 229-30(C)).
