Spotswood council adopts ordinance requiring car removal during snowstorms
SPOTSWOOD–The Borough Council adopted an ordinance requiring that all residents must remove their vehicles off roads during snowstorm emergencies.
Before adopting the ordinance, Chief of Police Michael Zarro said this year brought some extraordinary circumstances, and extraordinary circumstances call for extraordinary measures.
“It’s not our goal of the police department to ticket the residents, we try to go above and beyond all the time for our residents, but we were at a really critical point. The mayor and I were in constant communication and we were monitoring the weather,” Zarro said. “We had some changes in the weather where it became sleet, and some ice and some rain and a combination, which limited some of the snow that we were anticipating in the snow, we were at a critical point.”
