C. Parking prohibited in winter months.

(1) Declared snow emergency. No owner or operator of any vehicle shall park upon any public street, parking area among or within a right-of-way or alley between November 1 and April 30, inclusive, between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. during a declared snow emergency. A snow emergency may be declared by the Chief of Police or the Chief's delegate not later than 7:00 p.m. of the evening the snow emergency is to take effect. Such declaration shall be evidenced by express and logged notification being provided to the Police Department dispatchers by the Chief of Police or the Chief's delegate. The snow emergency shall be in effect for 48 hours after being declared, measured from the initial 11:00 p.m. time, and may be extended for additional twenty-four-hour increments if notice is so provided as required in Subsection C(1)(a) below. A declared snow emergency shall go into effect for enforcement purposes upon the following conditions having been met:

[Amended 6-6-2017 by Ord. No. 17-13; 5-5-2020 by Ord. No. 20-14]

(a) Notice of the declared snow emergency shall occur on the City of Watertown Police Department website on the day prohibited parking begins and, if possible, notice may be broadcasted through local radio, television, placed on the City of Watertown’s website or any other means available.

(2) Scope of declaration. A declared snow emergency shall apply to every public street and alley throughout the duration of the declared emergency unless a modified enforcement area is declared, as herein described:

(a) The Central City Snow Removal Area, as depicted in the map,[1] generally surrounds the downtown area and is identified as an area requiring extraordinary measures insofar as snow removal and pickup is concerned due to the lack of adequate off-street snow storage capability.

[1] Editor's Note: The Central City Snow Removal Area Map is included as an attachment to this chapter.

(b) Each initially declared snow emergency shall be for a period of 48 hours pursuant to Subsection C(1) above. If the determination is made by the Street Superintendent or his designee that, during the second twenty-four-hour period of the declared snow emergency, plowing operations will only be necessary within the Central City Snow Removal Area, he shall notify the Chief of Police or his designee as to his determination. Once notified, the Chief of Police or his designee shall ensure that notice of the modified snow emergency is so provided as required in Subsection C(1)(a) above, accompanied by the Central City Snow Removal Area Map.

[Amended 5-5-2020 by Ord. No. 20-14]

(c) In the event a snow emergency is extended for a period of 24 hours pursuant to Subsection C(1) above, the extension may be for the entire City or for the Central City Snow Removal Area, depending on actual or anticipated weather and street conditions, subject to the notice requirements in Subsection C(2)(b) above.

(3) Posted streets and alleys. In addition to the provisions of Subsection C(1), no owner or operator of any vehicle shall park on any street or alley when signs are posted indicating that snow is being or is going to be removed from such street or alley.

(4) Posted public parking lot. It is the declared policy of the City Street Department to clear the public parking lots within the City by 12:00 noon of the day following the removal of snow from the adjoining streets or alleys.
