What do I do when a Snow Emergency is declared?
When the Street Department declares a Snow Emergency, residents need to prepare for Alternate Side Parking so our crews can clear the roadways safely and in a timely manner. Residents need to park on the side of the road corresponding to the day of the week. (Even days, please park on the side of the road with even-numbered addresses/Odd days, please park on the side of the road with odd-numbered addresses.)
Citations will NOT be issued from 6 PM to midnight so that residents may park on the side of the road that corresponds to the next day's date. This was put into place as a convenience to residents so they will not have to move vehicles at or around midnight.
Thank you for your cooperation.
