Winter parking ban starts Nov. 15

by | Nov 4, 2022 | News

The Department of Public Works issued a reminder about the winter parking ban that goes into effect Nov. 15 and runs until April 1. Vehicles cannot be parked on any street between 1-6 a.m., except for emergencies.

Any vehicle interfering with the DPW’s snow and ice removal efforts is liable to be removed, with the vehicle owner responsible for towing and storage costs.

Additionally, as per the town’s bylaw, individuals are not allowed to “pile, push, throw, shovel, plow or by any other method or means cause snow to be deposited or placed on any public roadway or sidewalk of the town so as to impede, obstruct or interrupt or otherwise adversely affect the unrestricted flow of traffic or the safe travel of any pedestrian on such roadway or sidewalk.” Violators are subject to a fine of no more than $25 for each violation.
