The Chief of Police or, in his absence, the ranking police officer is authorized to declare an emergency and to direct the posting of EMERGENCY NO-PARKING signs when weather conditions, accidents, fires or public celebrations dictate or require the avoidance of hazards or other conditions which interfere with the free flow of traffic. Notification that 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.
B. 
The effectiveness of this section is continent upon the signs being erected as required by law.
A. 
Whenever snow has fallen and the accumulation is such that it covers the streets or highways, an emergency shall exist and no vehicle shall be parked on any streets or highway or portions thereof. The above parking prohibitions shall remain in effect after the snow has ceased and until the streets have been plowed or treated sufficiently and to the extent that parking will not interfere with the normal flow of traffic.
[Amended 12-20-2004 by Ord. No. 62-2004]

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.
