13 Parking Prohibited at All Times on Certain Streets of the Revised General Ordinances. Standish Avenue was designated as a One-Way Street by Ordinance #2930-25, to create more parking opportunities for both local residences and local businesses. As part of this change, it has been determined that allowing parking on the east side of the roadway will create additional needed parking. It is necessary to continue to prohibit parking within 100’ feet of the northerly end of the street to allow school buses, delivery vehicles, and fire apparatus to turn safely into the street. b. 2982-26 An Ordinance Amending and Supplementing Chapter 7, “Traffic,” Section 10.1, “Stopping or Standing Prohibited During Certain Hours on Certain Streets”, Section 10.2 “Stopping or Standing Prohibited During Certain Hours on Certain Streets on Certain Days”, Section 11 “Parking Time Limited on Certain Streets During Certain Hours”, And Section 13 “Parking Prohibited at All Times on Certain Streets”, of the Municipal Code of the Township of West Orange (Carballo) This Ordinance amends and supplements Chapter 7 Traffic, Subsections 7-10.1, 7-10.2, 7-11, and 7-13 of the Revised General Ordinances to create a ten-minute parking drop off zone on the east side of Redwood Avenue opposite
Redwood School for the convenience of school parents who wish to walk their children into school and bypass the vehicle drop off lane in the school parking lot. This amendment supersedes safety efforts previously undertaken at the request of Board of Education Staff, the Redwood School Principal, and Redwood Parents. c. 2983-26 An Ordinance Amending and Supplementing Chapter 7 “Traffic”, of the Revised General Ordinances of the Township of West Orange to Establish Section 47, “Residential Permit Parking Pilot Program,” for a Residential Permit Parking at Pillot Place, for a Limited Time Pursuant to a Pilot Program (Semeraro) 10.
