After two (2) or more inches of snowfall, or any other time a snow emergency is declared, all vehicles must be parked off the street to allow snow removal. Parked vehicles found blocking the snow removal process will be ticketed and/or towed away at the owner’s expense. It is further required that sidewalks are cleared as soon as possible after the snow stops. In the event such snow and/or ice remain more than thirty-six hours (36) hours, then the city may remove snow and/or ice at the owner’s expense.

• City Parking Lot at N 3rd St & Franklin
