Snow alerts initiate alternate side parking within city limits.

On odd-numbered dates, vehicles must be parked on the odd-numbered side of the street. On even-numbered dates, vehicles must be parked on the even-numbered side of the street.

“With winter weather quickly approaching, we want everyone to be prepared for and aware of the parking guidelines,” said Parking Utility Coordinator Joe Pederson.
