Having announced that city hall would close at 2:00 pm, it was safe to assume that the city would get around to declaring a snow day. They did just that in an announcement that arrived at the newsdesk as 5:04 pm.
A Snow Event has been declared Jan. 25, effective immediately. All on-street parking is prohibited until the event is over.
Vehicles parked on-street during a Snow Event may be ticketed or towed.
Crews are working to clear primary and secondary roads. Once they have been cleared, crews will begin to plow residential roads throughout the night.
Residents can assist in the quick and efficient removal of snow from our streets and sidewalks by removing cars parked on the street during or after a snowfall and by giving snowplows distance to clear the snow and ice when driving.
