UNSETTLED PARKING VIOLATIONS
Outstanding violations of parking, standing or stopping regulations of the Borough of Elizabethtown Code or the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code for which citation(s) have been filed with a District Justice and a summons has been issued to which either no response has been made or for which a warrant has been issued including adjudicated citations where the fine and costs imposed are unpaid.
Boot Installation. Any motor vehicle found parked within the Borough of Elizabethtown upon any public route at any time may, by or under the direction of an officer or member of the Police Department of the Borough, be booted if there are three or more unsettled parking violations pending against the owner of the motor vehicle.

The hearing shall be held during normal business hours within one business day of the demand therefor.

Tampering With Boot Prohibited. Any person who shall tamper with, remove or attempt to remove any device used to immobilize a motor vehicle that has been booted pursuant to this section, or who shall move or attempt to move the vehicle booted before release of the vehicle has been officially secured, shall be, upon conviction thereof, sentenced to pay a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $600 plus costs and, in default of payment of said fine and costs, to a term of imprisonment not to exceed 30 days.
Implementation and Enforcement. This section shall be enforced by the Police Department of the Borough of Elizabethtown, and the Chief of Police shall have authority for implementing the parking enforcement provisions thereof and to promulgate such rules and regulations as necessary therefor, which regulations shall be effective upon approval by Council.
Right to Hearing Not Waived. Nothing in this section shall be construed to deprive any person of the constitutional right to a hearing or trial as to the violation for which citations have been issued.
