In addition, the city clerk(or designee) is authorized to issue service parking permits to persons who as a necessary part of their business provide delivery service or repair service in commercial vehicles. B. A service parking permit exempts permitted commercial vehicles from parking time limit restrictions and from prohibitions against reparking while actively conducting loading operations, or while actively rendering service to adjacent property, or while actively providing delivery service or repair service in a commercial vehicle. C. The following procedure shall be followed in the issuance of service parking permits: 1. Application shall be made to the city clerk(or designee) on a form provided by the city clerk. The applicant shall set forth the applicant's business vehicle license number and the necessity for such permit. 2. If it appears that the criteria set forth herein are met and that the parking of the vehicle will not endanger or likely endanger potential users of the city's alleys, streets or sidewalks,the city clerk or designee may authorize the issuance of such permit upon payment of the fees and compliance with all other conditions. Each vehicle parking pursuant to this provision shall display the permit in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the city clerk. 3. The city clerk (or designee) may revoke any service parking permit if the permit is used for any purpose other than that authorized herein or if the vehicle authorized to display such permit obstructs any alley, sidewalk, or street, or parks in a manner which endangers or is likely to endanger users of the alley, sidewalk, or street or parks in a restricted zone (such as a bus zone, fire zone or danger zone). 4. Any such permit issued hereunder shall, unless revoked, be valid for a period of one year from January 1st or any portion of the year from the date of issuance to the following December 31st. 5.
