No person shall deposit, blow, plow or shovel any snow or ice
accumulating on private property onto a street in the Township of
Allamuchy.
No owner, tenant, occupant or other person having charge of
any dwelling, store, building or lot having parking spaces reserved
for the handicapped nor any contractor, subcontractor or other person
shall block access to such parking spaces reserved for handicapped
drivers by the plowing, piling, placement, blowing or shoveling of
snow or ice into such spaces.
It is hereby declared to be the policy of the Township of Allamuchy
that, upon the installation of street improvements and the pavement
of the same by a developer (prior to the acceptance of those street
improvements by the Township), the developer shall be responsible,
at the cost of the developer, to remove the snow and/or treat ice
which accumulates on such roads and driveways. The developer shall
be obligated as part of any developer's agreement between the Township
and the developer to so provide for the removal of snow and ice. Should
the developer fail to provide for such removal, the Township may,
in its sole discretion, cause such snow and ice to be removed at the
cost and expense of the developer. In that event, the developer shall
not seek compensation from the Township of Allamuchy pursuant to N.J.S.A.
40:67-23.5 and shall be liable for all reasonable costs thereof incurred
by the Township. The Township shall not be obligated to provide advance
notice to the developer of the Township's intention to cause snow
and/or ice to be removed if, in the reasonable judgment of the Supervisor
of the Road Department, such snow and/or ice poses a threat to the
health, safety and welfare of the residents of the Township who use
such roads and driveways.
For a first offense, any person violating the provisions of this article shall be provided written notice of the violation, which shall contain a warning that subsequent repeat violation will result in the issuance of a complaint in the Municipal Court of the Township of Allamuchy. For any second or subsequent offense, a person shall, upon conviction, for each offense, be liable to the general penalty in Chapter
1, Article
II, General Penalty, of the Township Code, including a fine of not less than $50.
The Supervisor of the Road Department and his designated agents are hereby authorized to enforce this article and to serve notice and file complaints pursuant to §
270-17.
