Remember: No Parking on Snow-Covered Streets

Tthe Winter Weather Advisory tonight includes a likely “Snow Event” – so we want to remind the public DO NOT PARK on snow covered streets. With a late-night start to the snow, this afternoon is the time to move your vehicles so that Public Works staff can prepare for the storm.

Reminders

• Do not park on snow covered roads. Our police department will be enforcing this during snow events.

• Please do not blow snow onto plowed roadways. This creates hazardous road conditions.

• During snow storms our first priority is to open main roads to provide safe access for emergency vehicles and maintain safe traffic.

• Plows will continue to clear all streets until every road is safe to travel.

• Also keep in mind that during these storms, vehicle breakdowns ultimately occur.

Your patience and cooperation during these snow events is greatly appreciated!

Local Ordinance 407-57 Parking on Snow Covered Streets.

Whenever snow has fallen and the accumulation is such that it covers the street or highway, an emergency shall exist and no vehicle shall be parked on any street or highway or portion thereof. These parking prohibitions shall remain in effect after the snow has ceased, until the street has been plowed sufficiently and to the extent that parking will not interfere with the normal flow of traffic.
