(a) The Board of Trustees may designate or change emergency snow routes within the Town by resolution based upon the Board of Trustees’ determination as to which streets or highways should be free of parked, stopped or stalled vehicles when a snowstorm condition or severe snowstorm condition has been declared in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter, in order to expedite motor vehicle traffic or to facilitate snow removal.

(b) Along each street or highway entering the Town, and which has been designated an emergency snow route, the Town maintenance supervisor shall cause to be posted traffic signs indicating that the street or highway has been designated an emergency snow route and that parking prohibitions shall apply. The lack of visibility of any such sign when parking restrictions are in effect shall not excuse the owner or operator of any vehicle from complying with the provisions of this Chapter.

(c) Whenever there are three (3) or more inches of nondrifted snow or enough sleet, snow or ice to cause a solid coating of ice on any street designated an emergency snow route in the Town, no owner of a motor vehicle or person in charge of a motor vehicle operated within the Town limits shall allow the vehicle to remain parked, abandoned, standing or stopped on such street or highway. Any vehicle found parked, abandoned, standing or stopped on such street or highway is subject to removal or impoundment pursuant to this Chapter. (Ord. 928 § 1, 2007)
