[Adopted by the Board of Selectmen effective 4-25-1997 (§ 173 of the prior compilation)]
No organized event shall be conducted on the frozen water of
Highland Lake without first obtaining a permit to do so from the Chief
of Police. The Chief of Police shall have the authority to issue such
a license upon application therefor, provided that a license fee as
set from time to time by the Board of Selectmen is paid in advance
by the licensee and a cash bond in an amount required by the Board
of Selectmen is posted with the Chief, which shall be used to reimburse
the Town for the cost of clean-up or the cost of police, fire or ambulance
personnel that the Town incurs as the result of the event. The cash
bond shall be returned to the licensee when the Chief of Police is
satisfied the Town of Winchester has incurred no cost arising from
the licensee's event.
This article shall not apply to any event organized by the Town
of Winchester, or any nonprofit organization.
Any person who violates any provision of this article shall
be fined not more than $100.
