Whenever the County Fiscal Court or any authorized county official finds that falling snow, sleet or freezing rain will create a condition which makes it necessary that the parking of motor vehicles on snow emergency routes be prohibited, or whenever it is found on the basis of a firm forecast of snow, sleet or freezing rain that the weather conditions so forecasted may create a condition making it necessary that parking be prohibited, the Fiscal Court or county official is authorized to announce the prohibition, to become effective at a time specified by him, her or it. After the effective time of the prohibition, no person shall park any vehicle or permit any vehicle to remain parked on a snow emergency route. However, if a fall of snow, sleet or freezing rain occurs after 11:00 p.m. and prior to 6:00 a.m., and the County Fiscal Court or any authorized county official has not announced prior to 11:00 p.m. that parking on snow emergency routes is to be prohibited after a specified time, a vehicle parked on a snow emergency route may remain so parked until 7:00 a.m. following the fall. The prohibition of parking announced by the County Fiscal Court or any authorized county official under the authority of this section shall remain in effect until the Fiscal Court or county official announces the termination of the snow emergency, in part or in whole, after which the prohibition of parking authorized by this section shall no longer be in effect.
