Parking During a Snow Emergency
No vehicles may park on a public street or sidewalk during a declared snow emergency. Residents can move their vehicles to designated city parking lots once the snow parking ban is announced. Vehicles must be removed promptly from these lots at the end of a snow emergency or they will be towed.
Vehicles Parked on Streets During a Snow Emergency
Vehicles parked on streets and sidewalks are subject to ticketing and towing. An announcement will be made when the parking ban is lifted. If your car is towed it will be $169 tow fee plus a $150 ticket. There is a $35 storage fee per day that your car is held at the tow lot. It is strongly advised that you find off-street parking during a snow emergency. The tow lot is located at 40 Federal Street behind the Fire Department Headquarters at 725 Western Avenue.
Car Removal Policy
If parking ban is lifted before 9PM:
Residents have two hours to remove cars from lots.
If parking ban is lifted after 9PM:
Residents will have until 6 AM the next day to remove cars from lots.
Vehicles still in designated snow lots after that time will be subject to ticketing and towing.
