- Ch DL Disposition List
Whenever snow has fallen and the accumulation is such that it covers any of the streets or parts of streets described in Schedule XVII (§ 87-39), no vehicle shall be parked upon any of the streets or parts of streets described in said Schedule XVII until 48 hours after all snowfall has ceased or until such earlier time as the streets or highways have either been plowed sufficiently and the snow removed to a sufficient extent to permit the normal flow of traffic or until such earlier time as the streets have been cleaned through natural causes sufficiently to permit the normal flow of traffic and so that parking, once resumed and permitted, will not interfere with such normal flow of traffic.
Upon the declaration of an emergency, there shall be no parking
upon streets or sections of streets where temporary emergency no-parking
signs are displayed. The Chief of Police or, in his absence, the ranking
police officers are authorized to declare an emergency and to direct
the posting of said emergency no-parking signs when weather conditions,
accidents, fires or public celebrations dictate the free flow of traffic.
Notification that the emergency no parking signs are being or will
be posted shall be given to the operator or owner of any vehicle which
has been parked prior to the posting of the signs.
Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation of this
Article shall be deemed a nuisance and a menace to the safe and proper
regulation of traffic, and any peace officer may provide for the removal
of such vehicle. The owner shall pay the reasonable costs of the removal,
and storage which may result from such removal, before regaining possession
of the vehicle.
The effectiveness of this Article is contingent on signs being
erected as required by law.
