The Mayor, or his or her designee, may order a parking prohibition on all snow emergency routes by declaring that an emergency exists on the basis of falling snow, sleet, freezing rain or official forecast by the U.S. Weather Service on snow, sleet, freezing rain or other weather conditions making it necessary that parking on a snow emergency route be prohibited for snow plowing or other purposes. In such declaration, the Mayor, or his or her designee, shall state the time that said emergency shall be in effect. It shall be unlawful for any person to park or allow to remain parked any vehicle on any portion of a snow emergency route during a parking prohibition affecting such streets. Once in effect, the parking prohibition imposed under this section shall remain in effect until terminated by the Mayor or his or her designee. However, nothing in this section shall be construed to permit parking at any time or place where it is forbidden by any other provision of law.
