(A) In order to facilitate the cleaning of village streets and to expedite the free flow of vehicular traffic, motor vehicles shall not be parked on the village streets at such times as the United States Weather Bureau records indicate that two inches of snow have fallen and there is a prospect of a further snowfall. Any motor vehicle parked in violation of this prohibition shall be removed at the order of the Chief of Police.
(B) (1) It shall be the responsibility of the owners or operators of motor vehicles to ascertain whether weather conditions require the removal of their motor vehicles from the village streets and to remove all motor vehicles parked in violation of this section. The Chief of Police shall make every effort to inform the public of the existence of weather conditions requiring removal of parked automobiles from the streets, through the radio, newspaper and all other available media to the extent feasible.
(2) Nevertheless, the owners and operators of motor vehicles parked on the village streets shall have full responsibility to determine existing weather conditions and to remove parked automobiles if the weather conditions are such as require their removal under the terms of this section.
(C) After the United States Weather Bureau records indicate that two inches of snow have fallen and there is a prospect of further snowfall, the Chief of Police shall order the removal of all vehicles parked on the village streets which have not been removed by the owners or operators. Such vehicles shall, at the owner's and operator's expense, be removed to a motor vehicle pound within the municipal boundaries. Records shall be kept in the Police Department of all vehicles removed.
