RE: Written Notification to Surrender THS Area Parking Permit #2014-062
Dear Mr. &Mrs. Guttman:
The residential parking section of the City of Tigard Municipal Code 10.28.175 is in place to address
parking related issues. The Tigard High School Parking Permit process was implemented to remedy
parking related issues for residents within the Tigard School area on school days, during school
hours.
Early last week, we received a complaint regarding a female student that parked Honda Accord,
plate #749DLZ, within the THS Parking Permit area with permit #2014-062. The Honda is
registered to the above address which is outside the THS Area Parking Permit area. Permit #2014-
062 is assigned to a vehicle registered to a resident within the THS Parking Permit Area.
Tigard Police Officer Gill contacted the student regarding the parking permit displayed in her
vehicle and she stated that a resident gave her the permit to use. When Tigard Police Officer Rinell
asked her to return the permit she said she did not have it anymore.
Tigard Municipal Code 10.28.175 Residential Parking Zones
A. The city council, pursuant to TMC Section 10.32.010, may establish residential parking zones.
The purpose of residential parking zones is to prohibit parking by nonresidents during specific time-
periods within specific geographic areas used predominantly for residential purposes. The city
council resolution which establishes the residential parking zone shall clearly define the geographic
limits of the area affected by the zone and the hours during which the parking by nonresidents will
be prohibited. Residents within the parking zones may obtain a permit from the city manager
pursuant to subsection B of this section to allow for the parking of vehicles within the zone during
the restricted hours.
B. The city manager shall establish procedures and standards for the issuance of permanent and
temporary permits to residents that will allow the residents and their guests to park their vehicles
within residential parking zones during the restricted hours.
At a minimum, the city manager shall establish rules which establish the criteria for issuance,
surrender and revocation of permits, evidence of proof of residence and vehicle ownership, terms of
the permit, standards for display of the permit, and allow for the issuance of temporary permits to
residents for the parking of nonresident vehicles for temporary periods upon a showing of
reasonable need for such permits.
C. The city manager shall cause to be installed and maintained, pursuant to TMC Section 10.32.020,
official signs for residential parking zones, which clearly identify the parking restrictions for
nonresidents and the exception to those restrictions for permit holders within the residential parking
zones.
D. It shall be unlawful for any person to:
1. Provide false information in connection with an application for a permanent or
temporary permit.
2. Fail to surrender a permit,when requested to do so,when the person is no longer
entitled to the permit.
3. Use a permit when the permit holder is no longer entitled to the permit.
4. Use, or allow the use of a permit in conjunction with a vehicle other than the vehicle for
which the permit was issued.
5. Use, or allow the use of a temporary permit in a manner inconsistent with the terms and
limitations of the permit.
E. The city manager is authorized to revoke any permit when the permit holder is found to be in
violation of the provisions of this section, and, upon written notification thereof, the permit holder
shall surrender the permit to the city. Failure to do so shall constitute a violation of this section.
(Ord. 03-08; Ord. 91-26 §1)
