Snow Plowing and Parking

Snow accumulation on roadways is expected, and snow removal operations will be underway. Vehicles should be parked in driveways when possible. If on-street parking is necessary, Town Code Section 27-10, listed below, must be followed.

Snow Plowing Schedule:

Primary streets - these streets receive first attention during snow removal operations. It is the goal of the Town to clear primary streets and have these passable before moving on to other responsibilities (Cheverly Avenue - Forest Road - parkway - Crest Avenue - Belleview Avenue - 63rd Avenue - 64th Avenue - 62nd Avenue - State Street - Lydell Road)

Secondary streets - once primary streets have been cleared, secondary streets will be plowed. The Town's goal is to provide passage on secondary streets before backtracking to primary streets for widening operations. Once secondary streets have passage and primary streets are widened, secondary streets will be widened.

Street Parking During Snow Emergencies per Town Code Section 27-10:

• A snow emergency shall exist whenever snow has accumulated on the streets of the town to a depth of one (1) inch or more.

• During a snow emergency, no person shall cause or allow any vehicle or automobile to be left or parked on the streets as follows:

1. On the cul-de-sac portion of any street;

2. On any courts;

3. On the odd-numbered side of 59th Avenue, the 3200 block of Tremont Avenue, and that portion of Inwood Street between Cheverly Avenue and Belleview Avenue;

4. On the even-numbered side of all other streets; and,

5. On any street except at the curb pursuant to this section.

• The snow emergency parking restrictions outlined above do not:

1. Override existing no-parking zones;

2. Authorize parking where it is prohibited;

3. Apply to those streets or parts of streets where enforcement of this snow emergency ordinance would disallow all parking on the particular street or portion of the street because of a no-parking zone on the side of the street where a car should park pursuant to subsection(c) above, and,

4. Apply to those streets or parts of streets with any barrier or strip dividing the lanes of traffic.

• The parking provisions during a snow emergency shall be effective without any notification and shall remain in effect until the street is plowed; provided, however, that when snow accumulates to a depth of one (1) inch or more after 11:00 p.m., The parking provisions in a snow emergency shall not be effective until 7:00 a.m. the day following and shall remain in effect until the street is plowed.
