SNOW TIRES

VEHICLE

A snow removal condition is hereby declared to exist in the Township whenever snow falls so that, in the opinion of any Township Supervisor, the Township Roadmaster or the officer in charge of the police, the street conditions are hazardous and dangerous to vehicular and pedestrian traffic because of snow accumulation.
