The Town Board of the Town of Islip does hereby find that an
emergency exists at any time that snow is permitted to accumulate
on the streets of the Town and that certain acts and omissions of
the inhabitants of the Town impede the removal of snow. It is further
found that such acts and omissions, by impeding the removal of snow
from the streets of the Town, also impede the provision of fire, police
and ambulance service to the residents of the Town and impede the
provision of other necessary services to Town residents. For the above
reasons, the Town Board of the Town of Islip does enact the following
provisions.
The following definitions shall apply in the interpretation
and enforcement of this article.
That side of a street on which a majority of the buildings
bear street addresses which are evenly divisible by two.

any power other than muscular power. The term "motor vehicle" shall
exclude fire, police and emergency vehicles.
Every natural person, firm, copartnership, association or
corporation.
The entire width between the boundary lines of every way
publicly maintained when any part thereof is open to the use of the
public for purposes of vehicular travel.
The following provisions of this article shall be effective
from the 15th of December to the 15th of March and between the hours
of 3:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.:
A.
Parking in residential areas. No motor vehicle shall be parked on
a residential street.
B.
Parking in business districts. No motor vehicle shall be parked on
any street in a business district.
C.
Any person convicted of violating this provision shall be punished
by a fine of not more than $75 or by imprisonment for not more than
15 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment; for a second such
conviction within 18 months thereafter, such person shall be punished
by a fine of not more than $150 or by imprisonment for not more than
15 days, or both such fine and imprisonment; upon a third or subsequent
conviction within 18 months after the first conviction, such person
shall be punished by a fine of not more than $250 or by imprisonment
for not more than 15 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
[Added 3-5-2013; amended 3-4-2014]
The following provisions of this article shall be effective
during a declared snow emergency:
A.
Snow tires. All motor vehicles being operated on any streets must
be equipped with snow tires and/or chains.
B.
Parking in residential districts. No motor vehicle shall be parked
on any residential street.
C.
Parking in business districts. No motor vehicle shall be parked on
the even side of any street in a business district.
Every owner of a business or multiple dwelling shall be responsible

building by fire trucks and other emergency vehicles.
No person shall deposit snow on any street.
