Parking Compliance
Parking compliance is an important factor in ensuring plows are able to clear roads after a snow event. If plows, City or private, are unable to move through a street because of illegally parked cars, both the quality and the efficiency of snow clearance will be negatively impacted.

The City takes the following measures to enforce parking:
- Police patrol high priority areas to ticket and, if necessary, tow illegally parked vehicles. Those areas include routes around hospitals and public safety buildings, steep hills, and narrow streets where cars don't follow even-odd parking rules.
- Ticketing and towing illegally parked cars that block plows on narrow roads.

Residents are reminded to:
- Observe the odd/even parking restrictions on their street to make way for plows
- Move vehicles from the street whenever possible during a significant snowfall

Snow Priority Parking Enforcement Areas
The City has identified priority streets for parking enforcement during snow events. These streets were selected using city data, including the percentage of multi-family dwellings, the width of the street, and other elements contributing to increased on-street parking. The City also included streets previously identified as problem points for plow drivers.
A list and map of the streets are included below:
