[Amended 10-12-1994 by Ord. No. 803]
A. Whenever snow falls to a depth of three inches or
more or either the Township of Springfield or the City of Philadelphia
declares a highway snow emergency, all parking upon the streets or
highways of the Township is hereby prohibited. When and where a resident
of the Township has access to a garage, driveway or other facility
for off-street parking or when and where a vehicle of a nonresident
is parked adjacent to premises the owner or occupier of which has
access to a garage, driveway or other facility for off-street parking,
said vehicles shall be placed in the off-street parking facility.
In cases where a resident of the Township does not have access to
a garage, driveway or other facility for off-street parking or where
a vehicle of a nonresident is parked adjacent to premises the owner
or occupier of which does not have access to a garage, driveway or
other facility for off-street parking, then, and only in such event,
shall parking be permitted upon the street or highway; provided, however,
that such parking on the street or highway shall be only on one side
thereof as follows: during even-numbered years parking shall be on
the even-numbered side of the street, and during odd-numbered years
parking shall be on the odd-numbered side of the street, provided,
further that where parking restrictions are permanently in effect,
such restrictions shall prevail, notwithstanding the provisions of
this section.
B. Any vehicles parked on Township streets or highways, not in accordance with the provisions of Subsection
A, after snow falls to a depth of three inches or more, or when either the City of Philadelphia or the Township of Springfield has declared a highway snow emergency, shall be towed at the owner's expense and the owner fined in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.
It shall be unlawful to throw, shovel or plow
snow into or upon any roads and streets within the Township from adjoining
property with the intent of allowing such snow to remain on such roads
and streets.
