(a)
No person shall park a vehicle on the left-hand side of a two (2) way street.
(b)
Subject to other and more restrictive limitations, a vehicle shall be stopped or parked within eighteen (18) inches of the left-hand curb facing in the direction of traffic movement upon any one (1) way street unless signs are in place prohibiting such stopping or standing.
(c)
The Council is hereby authorized by resolution to determine the streets upon which and the hours during which angle parking shall be permitted either exclusively or in conjunction with parallel parking, which regulations shall become effective when appropriate signs or marking are in place giving public notice thereof.
On those streets upon which angle parking exclusively is authorized, such fact shall be indicated by the painting of white lines upon the surface of the roadway to indicate the proper angle parking. On such streets, vehicles shall be parked at the angle to the curb indicated by such markings with at least one (1) front wheel within eighteen (18) inches of the curb. On those streets upon which combination parallel and angle parking is authorized, such fact shall be indicated by the posting of signs giving public notice thereof. On such streets, vehicles shall be parked as indicated by such signs.
