SUBJECT: City reminds public of alternate side parking rules

City reminds public of parking rules -

move vehicles to help snow plow operations

[Duluth, MN] - The City of Duluth reminds residents that parking rules are still in effect. For those areas with alternate side parking, the change over period runs from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm, every Sunday. For this week, residents must move their vehicles to the odd side of the street. Please be diligent and move vehicles to help snow plow operators expedite their work.

Plow operators are doing their best to clear streets but the significant snowfall and parked cars creates difficulties for plow trucks and graders to maneuver through some residential streets. Plow operators are out clearing streets and alleys today and hope to finish the even side streets by tomorrow. 

People who park on the street should be extra diligent to follow these ordinances; no closer than 7 feet to alleys or driveways, must park with 12 inches of the curb and parking or partially blocking driving lanes will result in a ticket and the car will be towed. 
 
Please also keep sidewalks clear to allow for safe pedestrian passage.  Help out your neighbors if you can.
