 New! Pilot Project for Winter Parking Restriction (2022-2023)

Following approval by Council a pilot program is in effect for the 2022-2023 winter season:

• In December, January, and February, a regular winter parking ban will be in effect each night from 1:00a.m. to 7:00a.m., regardless of weather conditions.
• In November and in March, the on-street parking ban will be reduced to alert-based only (since there is historically less snowfall during these months).

Register for our parking ban alerts. You will receive an email notice before 2:00p.m. if an on-street parking ban is in effect. A notice will also be posted on our Parking webpage.
