All traffic and parking regulations of a permanent nature shall
be enacted as ordinances, as parts of ordinances, as amendments to
ordinances, or as amendments to this chapter.
The provisions of this Chapter
220, so far as they are the same as those of ordinances in force immediately prior to the adoption of this chapter, are intended as a continuation of such ordinances and regulations and not as new enactments. The provisions of this chapter shall not affect any act done or liability incurred, nor shall they affect any suit or prosecution pending or to be instituted to enforce any right or penalty or to punish any offense under any such ordinances or regulations as aforesaid.
The Board of Supervisors may, from time to time by resolution,
designate places upon and along the highways in the Township of West
Donegal where for a period of not more than 90 days, specific traffic
and/or parking regulations, prohibitions and restrictions shall be
in force and effect, and shall designate such locations by proper
signs and markings. Such regulations, prohibitions and restrictions
shall be effective as is they had been specified in this chapter.
No person shall operate or park a vehicle or tractor in violation
of any such regulation, prohibition or restriction, and no person
shall move, remove, destroy or deface any sign or marking erected,
posted or made by authority of this section. Any person who shall
violate any provision of this section shall, upon conviction thereof,
be subject to the penalty set forth in the law or elsewhere in this
chapter for a violation of such nature, and in case of a violation
for which no specific penalty is set forth in the law or elsewhere
in this chapter, to a fine of not more than $25 together with costs
of prosecution, provided the purpose of this section is to allow for
the test and experimental determination of the feasibility and desirability
of permanent changes in the ordinances of the Township relative to
traffic and parking.
[Amended 4-3-2006 by Ord. No. 167-2006]
Police officers are hereby given authority to direct traffic
on the highways of the Township and at intersections thereof and to
enforce all provisions of this chapter.
