Based on the forecast of adverse weather and street conditions, there is the potential for plowable snow in the coming days. Please plan to remove all vehicles, trailers/implements, and garbage/recycling receptacles from City streets and alleys until the snow has been cleared from curb to curb.
A snow emergency automatically exists after accumulating approximately three (3) or more inches of snow. Additionally, a snow emergency may be declared based on adverse weather or adverse street conditions.
Parking on streets and alleys is unlawful during a snow emergency until the snow has been cleared from curb to curb.
The penalty for violating a snow emergency is a Police Department issued $30.00 citation, and the vehicle will be towed if it is not removed within 24 hours after the citation issuance. All costs associated with the towing and impoundment fees shall be the vehicle owner's responsibility.
Vehicles parked overnight in the downtown “No Parking from 1 a.m.-5 a.m.” zones will be ticketed and towed immediately if a snow emergency is in effect.
For additional information, please reference City Ordinance Code 71.06 and Winter & Snow Street Policies as found through the links below.
