[Amended 11-26-1996 by Ord. No. 414]
In order to facilitate the movement of traffic and to combat the hazards of snow and ice on the snow emergency routes named in § 210-60 of this article, the Chief of Police or his designee, in his discretion, may declare a snow and ice emergency (designated in this article as a "snow emergency"). Information on the existence of a snow emergency may be given by the Township through radio, newspaper, television, cable public service channel or other available media, and information on the termination of the emergency may be given by use of the same media.
After any snow emergency is declared, it shall
be unlawful, at any time during the continuance of the emergency,
for any person:
A.
To park a motor vehicle, or to allow to remain parked, anywhere on any snow emergency route designated in § 210-60 of this article, until that portion of the designated snow emergency route has been cleared of snow and ice sufficiently to permit the Chief of Police, or his designee, to allow parking and travel restrictions to be lifted.
B.
To drive any motor vehicle on any such snow emergency
route unless that vehicle is equipped with snow tires or chains.
