Things you can do to help plow crews during a snowstorm!

– Keep parked cars off the roadway.

– Put trash and recycling carts on your terrace or driveway apron and not in the roadway.

– Do not blow or shovel snow from your driveway or sidewalk back into the road.

– Stay home if possible.

During a snow emergency, parking is even/odd between Midnight and 8:00 am. The side of the street depends on the address of the houses on that side of the street and what the date will be after midnight. The odd side of the street is any address ending in an odd number and the even side of the street is any address ending in an even number. For example, if it is 7:00 pm on February 5, you should park on the EVEN side of the street because it will be February 6 after midnight. Failure to follow the snow emergency ordinance could result in a parking ticket.

This snow emergency will end at 8 a.m. on December 3rd, 2025.
