A welcome sight for thousands of homeowners on Wednesday: the snow plow. This plow, driven by Kevin Butler of 3 B’s Paving, was nearly lost for a moment under the snow of this driveway on Parmalee Hill Road. (Hicks photo)

Newtown has a town ordinance that restricts overnight parking on town owned roads during the winter months. Vehicles left parked on roadways — especially “if deemed to be a nuisance to plow drivers” — can be towed from their location “at the expense of the owner or the person in possession thereof. Vehicle owners will have to pay to have their vehicles returned (Section 295-7), and will also face a $90 fine (Section 295-8), a fee that was increased in 2003 more than threefold from its original level of $25.
