[Ord. 2002-01, 1/7/2002]
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, except
where the law specifically authorizes less formal action.
[Ord. 2002-01, 1/7/2002]
The provisions of this chapter, so far as they
are the same as those of ordinances and regulations in force immediately
before the enactment of this chapter, are intended as a continuation
of those earlier ordinances and regulations, and not as new enactments.
Nothing in this chapter shall affect any act done or liability incurred,
or any suit or prosecution pending or to be instituted under any of
those repealed or superseded ordinances or regulations.
[Ord. 2002-01, 1/7/2002]
The Board of Supervisors from time to time by
resolution, designate places upon and along the highways in the Township
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 if they had been specified in this chapter. No person
shall operate 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.
[Ord. 2002-01, 1/7/2002]
The police officers of the Township are hereby
authorized to direct traffic on the highways of the Township and at
intersections thereof and to otherwise enforce the provisions of this
chapter.
