A snow emergency will be declared by executive order issued by the Town Council President or his or her duly appointed representative when, based on reasonable judgment and discretion, the circumstances warrant the declaration of such emergency for the public safety in the town. The executive order will be filed in the office of the Clerk, posted at the Town Hall, and promptly communicated to local radio and television stations, news services and social media either during or after a snowfall. A declared snow emergency will begin upon issuance of the executive order and will continue in effect until the Town Council President or his or her duly appointed representative terminates the snow emergency upon a determination that the snow emergency conditions no longer exist. The termination of the declared snow emergency will be filed in the office of the Town Clerk, posted at the Town Hall, and communicated to the same media which were used to announce its declaration.
