Good question. I wonder the same thing.

This should clarify your question.

7-15 PARKING OF CERTAIN VEHICLES PROHIBITED.

7-15.1 Parking Prohibited.

a. It shall be unlawful for the owner or operator of a truck (including without limitation vans and pick up trucks), truck tractor, trailer, semi-trailer, commuter van, school buses including Type I and Type II buses, omnibus vehicles (including taxis), motorized mobile homes (a vehicle equipped with sleeping, kitchen, or bathroom facilities), used for commercial purposes, as defined by N.J. Motor Vehicle and Traffic Regulations 39:1-1, to park such vehicles on any street in the Town of Kearny between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. prevailing time.

b. It shall be unlawful for the owner or operator of a truck tractor, trailer or semi-trailer to park such vehicle on any residential street at any time except for purposes of pick-up and delivery.

c. It shall be unlawful for anyone to park any trailer or semi-trailer on any street in the Town of Kearny at any time unless it is connected to a power unit. (This provision shall not apply to dumpsters which are governed by Section 20-3 of the Revised General Ordinances.)

d. Any unoccupied vehicle or any trailer or semi-trailer named in subsection 7-15.1, parked or standing in violation of this subsection shall be deemed a nuisance and a menace to the safe and proper regulation of traffic; and any Kearny Police Officer may provide for the removal of such vehicle, trailer or semi-trailer. The owner shall pay the reasonable costs of the removal and storage which may result from such removal before regaining possession of the vehicle, trailer or semi-trailer. (1973 Code § 132-13; Ord. No. 1999-O-3; Ord. No. 2002-O-70)

Then this law should be enforced instead of just told. I have witnessed last night a comcast truck parked in a yellow wit the cones in front an back of the truck overnight. Cops r quick to give tickets to people because some of their car is in the yellow because @#$% dont know how to park properly but theres constantly commercial vehicles and taxis occuping kearny streets making it extra hard for residents to park its bad enough people dont use their driveways or people with motorcycles park blocking 2 spots just to save spots for themselves and family members an it bad enough u have idiots that dont park the right way and take up 2 spots its ridiculous

enforcement on overnight commercial vehicles is enforced every night. If you see a vehicle in violation please call the front desk 201-998-1313 and they will dispatch a unit to address. Thanks for you concern in this matter.

so the next time you see a taxi parked between the hours of 10 pm and 6 am, call the police and ask them to enforce the ordinance. If they balk, insist

Why don't you call your councilman and complain. Most of Hudson County has resident parking only at night. Maybe you can convince the council to stop allowing 1 family homes to be converted or torn down and replaced by huge multi families
