LOCAL LAW No. _ OF THE YEAR 2026 BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Wappinger as follows: Section 1. Title This Local Law shall be known and cited as "A Local Law Amending Chapter 230-46, 47, and 48 Of The Town Code Limiting Parking On Myers Corners Road" Section 2. Legislative Intent At the request of the Wappingers Central School District and Dutchess County Sheriff's Office, the Town Board believes that it is reasonable and appropriate to amend Chapter 230-46, 230-47, 230-48 of the Town Code to prohibit parking, stopping, and stand- ing on Myers Corners Road from its westernmost intersection of Old Myers Corners Road and Myers Corners Road to where it meets US Route 9. This is due to the unsafe situations that have presented themselves when motorists are parked along side the roadway limiting traffic flows, pedestrian access, and potentially causing accidents. Preventing parking, stopping, and standing on Myers Corners Road will limit the congestion of the roadway and improve traffic flow. This local law is determined to be an exercise of the police powers of the Town to protect the public health, safety and wel- fare of its residents. Section 3. Amendments to Chapter 230-46, 47, 48.
