Section 5955 - Snow fences(a) The county which is responsible for the maintenance of any road may enter upon private property adjacent to such road and place thereon snow fences, at any point as may be deemed necessary to within a limit of one hundred feet from the right-of-way line of such road, in order to eliminate snow drifting on the traveled portion thereof.(b) No snow fence authorized under this section shall be placed prior to November first nor shall the same remain in place after April first of the succeeding year, unless the written consent of the owner of the adjacent property is obtained, agreeing to an extension of time for the removal of said snow fence.(c) If the county responsible for the maintenance of the road shall not be able to enter into an agreement with the owner of adjacent property occupied by such snow fence as to the amount of damages sustained as a result of said fence being placed and removed, the owner may petition the court of the proper county for the appointment of viewers to ascertain the amount of damages incurred in such case. The appointment of viewers and the procedure thereafter shall be governed and be in accordance with this act, as provided for eminent domain proceedings. Such damages, if any, when ascertained, shall be paid by the county responsible for the maintenance of the road, and any funds available to the county for the construction and maintenance of roads under their supervision shall be available for the payment of such damages.1953, July 28, P.L. 723, art.
