In order to facilitate the movement of traffic and to combat
the hazards of snow and ice on the streets in the Borough, the Mayor,
or in the Mayor's absence, the President of Council or his successor,
in his discretion, may declare a snow and ice emergency which shall
be designated as a "snow emergency." Information on an existence of
a snow emergency may be given by the Borough through the radio, television,
newspaper or other available media, and information on the termination
of the emergency may be given by use of the same media.
