The streets or parts of streets described in Schedule VII (§ 183-45), attached to and made a part of this chapter, are hereby designated as one-way streets in the direction indicated.
Upon receiving from the United States Weather Bureau a firm forecast
of sleet or snowfall, the City Manager shall issue an alert, and when
heavy precipitation appears imminent, the City Manager shall declare
a snow emergency by causing an announcement thereof to be made through
the press, if possible, but in no event by fewer than two radio stations,
whose normal range covers the City of Lewes and its surrounding area.
After a snow emergency has been officially declared, as provided
by this section, and until it is officially terminated by the City
Manager, all motor vehicles that are parked on the surface of the
street set forth and enumerated in Schedule VIIA of this chapter shall
be removed by the owner or operator, as the case may be. All parking
of all motor vehicles on any street designated herein as snow emergency
routes is hereby prohibited during the time that a snow emergency
has been officially declared and is in effect.
During a sleet or snow emergency as declared by the City Manager,
any police officer of the City, while in the performance of his duty,
may remove and store or cause to be removed and stored from any street
enumerated in Schedule VIIA of this chapter as a snow emergency route
any motor vehicle parked or left standing upon any such street when
the owner or operator is unable, unwilling or unavailable to move
such motor vehicle. Any such removal or storage, or both, provided
for herein shall be at the expense of the owner or operator of such
motor vehicle.
This section shall become effective upon the erection by the City
Manager of appropriate signs on the streets described in Schedule
VIIA of this chapter.
