Emergency Snow Routes
If you park on an emergency snow route, be especially aware of weather conditions. After two inches of snow has fallen (day or night), the Street Division may plow. All vehicles parked on emergency snow routes are subject to ticketing and towing.
Secondary Snow Routes
These routes are mainly in residential areas and were designated to allow the public better access to emergency snow routes. Any vehicles on the streets will be subject to ticketing and towing when a snow alert has been issued.
