(1) PARKING WITHIN THE RIGHT-OF-WAY

(a) No person shall park a vehicle, including, but not limited to: motor vehicles, agricultural equipment, busses, recreational vehicles, mobile and modular homes, trucks and trailers, on the pavement of any public road within the Town limits, for any period of time that would create a hazard to other persons using the public road; without obtaining prior written authority to do so, from the police department.

(b) No person shall park any vehicle within the right-of-way of any public road within the Town limits, for more than 24 consecutive hours; without written authorization from the police department.

(c) Snow emergency declarations. The Town Board hereby declares that a snow emergency exists in the Town whenever a snowfall during any period of 24 hours or less reaches a depth of three inches or more. Such emergency is declared to be a serious public hazard impairing transportation and public health, safety, and welfare for a period until such time as snow removal operations have been completed. No person shall park any vehicle on any public road during a snow emergency and for a period of 24 hours thereafter (ie. from the time three inches of snow accumulates within a 24 hour period and for the next 24 hours).

 

Our Town Deputies have been addressing multiple reported issues lately of cars being parked in a manner that impedes our snow plows. We ask that you please follow our parking guidelines outlined above so that our snow plows can do their job and keep our roads safe to travel this Winter.
