Upon the request of any person, firm, or corporation, the Chief of Police or his designee, is hereby empowered to authorize a police escort for the moving of oversized loads, vehicular processions, and similar situations where it appears that a police escort is reasonably necessary in order to alleviate excessive traffic congestion, minimize the potential of an accident, assure compliance with the traffic-control requirements as contained within the applicable state law, and generally reduce any inconvenience to the general public resulting from such unusual traffic movements.
(Ord. 96-23, passed 12-12-95)
