Ridgewood regulates on-street parking through Chapter 265, controlling angle and parallel orientations, time limits, metered zones, and permit-required areas throughout the village.
Chapter 265 of the Ridgewood Code governs street parking, requiring vehicles in angled stalls to face nose toward the curb and parallel-parked vehicles to face the direction of travel. The chapter establishes metered parking, permit zones, and time-limited spaces especially around the Central Business District and Train Station. Schedules I through VIII designate signal-controlled intersections, no-turn streets, parking-prohibited segments, and time restrictions. The Village Council periodically adjusts meter rates, hours, and kiosk placements. Drivers should follow posted signs and refer to Schedule VIII for the comprehensive list of street-by-street rules.
Improperly oriented, expired, or prohibited street parking results in parking tickets, increased fines for repeat violations, and possible towing.
