Vehicles may not be parked for more than twelve hours on any city street, except where alternate parking regulations are in effect. On these streets, parking is permitted for the maximum period authorized by the alternate parking regulations. During major weather events, these regulations are strictly enforced.
Restrictions
When it snows, residents are encouraged to listen for media broadcasts announcing special snow clearance plans, and then take the corresponding action listed below:
| Plan | Rule |
Plowing Day Parking Restriction | This plan applies whenever snowfall or weather conditions require that residential streets be plowed. Alternate side of street parking regulations must be followed throughout residential areas*. The generally posted pattern for alternate side parking is: Parking on the even-numbered side of the street only until 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Parking on odd-numbered side only on Sunday and until 7:00 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. |
Snow Emergency | No parking is allowed on Snow Emergency Routes, as the City concentrates plowing efforts to keep all Snow Emergency Routes open and clear. |
Parking Emergency | This plan allows special effort to open snow clogged traffic lanes on residential streets. Parking on announced residential streets is prohibited, as residential streets are cleared from curb-to-curb. |
Please note
Where there are no posted parking restrictions on your street, follow regular alternate side of the street parking rules when a Plowing Day Parking Restriction is announced. If you live on a street where there is one-side-only parking or where restrictions differ from regular alternate side parking patterns, the City will announce special instructions through the media.
