Section 7-203 - Creation of parking authorities.

Any municipality may provide parking facilities and may, by ordinance, create a parking authority or designate a parking division for the purposes of creating and establishing off-street parking facilities. A parking authority created under the provisions of this section shall consist of five members, appointed by the chief executive officer of the municipality, not more than three of whom shall be of the same political party. Those first appointed shall be designated to serve for one, two, three, four and five years respectively and thereafter a member shall be appointed annually to serve for five years, except that any vacancy shall be filled for the unexpired portion of the term. Such authority shall select from among its members a chairman and may employ necessary personnel. The members of the authority shall serve without compensation but may be reimbursed for necessary expenses. No action of such authority shall be valid unless authorized by a vote of the majority of its members. Such authority shall maintain proper accounting and financial records and shall make an annual report to the chief executive officer of the municipality.
