Amends the charter of the town of Sylva to provide for certain parking ordinances to be approved by the board of commissioners, including establishing that each hour a vehicle remains illegally parked in an on-street parking space is a separate offense for which the violator can receive a ticket. Further provides for an ordinance requiring that any vehicle that has been towed for a parking violation must be held until all towing fees and penalties related to all outstanding parking tickets and parking penalties are paid in full to the town or a bond is posted for that same amount. Provides that such payment does not waive a person's right to contest the towing, tickets, or penalties. Authorizes ordinances to be passed that allow for the use of wheel locks on vehicles that are parked in a public vehicular area for which there is one or more outstanding, unpaid, or overdue parking tickets for a period of 90 days. Requires the wheel-lock ordinance to provide for a notice or warning to be affixed to the vehicle, allows a fee of up to $50, and allows other specified actions.
