Plowing and clearing of snow along the parking lanes of both sides of 1st
Street and 3rd Street will take place on Saturday, January 29 and along 4th
Street on Sunday, January 30.
This is necessary to ensure the safe passage of fire apparatus. The Police
Chief has declared a snow emergency along these streets, and residents
should remove their vehicles by 9 am on the designated day or risk being
ticket and towed. Residents may park along these streets once both sides of
the street have been cleared.
"We need to clear our streets as much as possible before the next storm
hits, but I recognize it can be difficult for people to dig out their cars,"
said Mayor Dawn Zimmer. "I strongly encourage residents to volunteer and
help their neighbors dig out, especially the elderly and disabled. Another
major storm is possible next week, and we're doing everything we can to
prepare for that storm."
Due to the impending storm and the need to address public safety issues,
enforcement of alternate side parking street cleaning regulations is
suspended until further notice.
In addition to clearing 1st, 3rd, and 4th Streets, the City will also
continue to clear snow piles from as many street corners as possible.
