Upon the declaration of an emergency, there
shall be no parking upon streets or sections of streets where temporary
emergency "no parking" signs are displayed. The Chief of Police or,
in his absence, the ranking police officer is authorized to declare
an emergency and to direct the posting of said 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 the 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.
Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in
violation of this Part 2 shall be deemed a nuisance and a menace to
the safe and proper regulation of traffic, and any police officer
may provide for the removal of such vehicle. Before regaining possession
of the vehicle, the owner shall pay the reasonable costs of the removal
and storage which may result from such removal.
The effectiveness of this Part 2 is contingent
on signs being erected as required by law.
