Fayette Signs or Markings Indicating Angle Parking ordinance (§ 350.020)
Chapter 350: Method of Parking
A. Determination And Authority.
1. The City Street Department Superintendent shall determine upon which streets angle parking shall be permitted within the City of Fayette and shall mark or sign such streets accordingly.
2. In accordance with correspondence from the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) dated September 23, 2025, it is acknowledged that:
a. MoDOT did not acquire deeds through the City of Fayette when establishing the State Highway System.
b. There are multiple maintenance agreements in place indicating that the City of Fayette is the owner of the roadway system within the City limits, including those portions designated as State Highway 240.
c. MoDOT maintains only the driving surface and signage on such routes.
Therefore, pursuant to MoDOT's statement, RSMo Section 300.420 is not applicable, and the City of Fayette is not required to obtain a resolution or order from the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission to install angled parking on these routes.
3. The City shall, however, coordinate with MoDOT's Area Engineer to ensure that any roadway proposed for angle parking is of sufficient width to safely permit such parking without interfering with the free movement of traffic.
B. Restrictions. Angle parking shall not be indicated or permitted at any location where passing traffic would be caused or required to drive upon the left side of the street or otherwise violate provisions of State law or City traffic ordinances.
C. Signage And Markings. All angle parking zones shall be clearly marked or signed by the City Street Department in accordance with standards established by the City of Fayette and consistent with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) where applicable.
D. Enforcement. Parking outside the lines or markings of designated angle parking spaces, or in violation of restrictions established by the City, shall constitute a parking violation subject to penalties as set forth in Chapter 370 of the Code of Ordinances.
