Snow is on its way, and with snow, comes snow parking bans. How do you know a parking ban is in effect? Generally, when there's more than 2 inches on the ground, we'll issue a parking ban to allow our plows to clear the road for the safety of motorists and pedestrians. Sign up for emergency weather alerts and you'll be notified by email or text message when we put a parking ban in effect. Or, check our website homepage, and you will see an announcement banner on the top of each page.
