Pursuant to, without limitation, the provisions of Conn. Gen. Stat. § 7-148, and for the public’s health, safety, welfare and convenience and to protect the town from fire, it is hereby made the duty of the Fire Marshal and his or her agents to inquire into and investigate the parking, or placing, of vehicles of all kinds, or any other objects, in driveways, alleys, parking areas and other open spaces adjacent to or leading to dwellings occupied by three or more families and buildings open to the public, where the blocking of driveways, alleys, parking areas and other open spaces by the parking or placing of vehicles or any other objects endangers the safety of persons occupying or using the dwellings and/or buildings so as to constitute a fire hazard, in the opinion of the Fire Marshal, to designate parking vehicles or placing objects in the areas as a fire hazard, and to have the areas posted as a fire zone/fire lane. This section shall not apply to driveways serving one dwelling occupied by less than three families.
