Summary
Long Branch layers its own street-by-street parking schedules on top of New Jersey's statewide stopping and standing law, N.J.S.A. 39:4-138, under Code § 325-3. Time-limited zones, no-parking streets, and angled-parking blocks are all designated by numbered schedules attached to the same chapter.
Regulations not exclusive. The provisions of this chapter imposing a time limit on parking shall not relieve any person of the duty to observe other more restrictive provisions prohibiting or limiting the stopping, standing or parking of vehicles as set forth in N.J.S.A. 39:4-138, any other New Jersey statute or as hereinafter provided. ... No person shall park a vehicle for longer than the time limit shown in Schedule V at any time between the hours listed in Schedule V of any day, except Sundays and public holidays, upon any of the streets or parts of streets described in Schedule V (§ 325-30) attached to and made a part of this chapter.

Full Breakdown
A. 39:4-138 and the rest of Title 39. On top of that state floor, the City designates its own no-parking streets in Schedule II (§ 325-26), hour-restricted streets in Schedule III (§ 325-27), and seasonal restrictions in Schedules IV and IVA (§§ 325-28, 325-29). Where a street carries a posted time limit, Schedule V caps how long a vehicle can stay parked during the listed hours, every day except Sundays and holidays (§ 325-3G). Alternate-side parking is designated block by block in Schedule XIX (§ 325-45) and applies every day except Sundays and public holidays (§ 325-3H).
Angled parking is permitted only where Schedule XXV (§ 325-51) specifically designates it, and parking any other way on those blocks can draw a summons (§ 325-3N). without a residency permit issued by the Public Safety Director, and unhitched trailers can never be left parked on a street at all (§ 325-3L). 1).
Violations & Fines
Unless a New Jersey statute sets a different penalty, any violation of Chapter 325's parking rules is punishable by a fine of up to $500, imprisonment of up to 15 days, or both (§ 325-23). Illegally parked heavy vehicles, trailers, or boats can be cited and impounded, with the owner billed for towing and storage under Chapter 316's fee schedule (§ 325-3L(5)), and off-street parking outside an approved zoning lot carries its own fine of up to $500 per offense with a mandatory court appearance (§ 325-3M).
