Ashland Borough Tickets Cars For Snow Emergency, Revoking Tickets Issued

Last evening, the Ashland Borough announced a snow emergency.  During the overnight hours, the police still ticketed vehicles on the Snow Emergency route even though the borough didn't receive any snow.

According to the Ashland Borough office, the tickets should not have been written due to there being no snow fall.

Any residents that received a ticket for the 3/2/14-3/3/14 snow emergency can take their ticket to the Ashland Police Station where they will revoke the ticket. No fine needs to be paid.
