[Adopted 5-8-1962]
During and immediately after all snow- and ice
storms, no motor vehicle shall be found parked on the even-numbered
side of the street, unless otherwise ordered by the Board of Selectmen,
whether or not in a parking space, nor shall such motor vehicle be
found parked in such manner as to interfere with and/or hamper the
effective sanding of ice or removal of snow from the streets and highways
of the Town of Branford.
Any motor vehicle found parked in violation of § 223-1 hereof may be removed or conveyed by or under the direction of a member of the Department of Police by means of towing the same or otherwise to a public garage or its premises in the Town of Branford.
The removal of any motor vehicle pursuant to § 223-2 hereof shall be at the risk and expense of the owner thereof; and before the owner or person in charge of such motor vehicle shall be permitted to remove the same from the custody of the Department of Police, he shall furnish evidence of his identity and ownership or right to possession and shall sign a receipt for said vehicle.
[Amended 1-10-1973; 12-18-1979]
The fee for towing as above set forth shall
be $25 plus a storage charge of $5 per day after the first 24 hours,
said fee and charge to be paid to the owner of such public garage
to which such motor vehicle shall be towed, or to the duly authorized
representative of said owner of said garage.
[Adopted 3-10-2021]
