Has the city declared a snow emergency or parking ban?

Yes. Beginning March 12 at 11 p.m. there will be a parking ban "until further notice," the town announced.

Generally, the Public Services Director will call a "snow emergency" when excessive amounts of snow are predicted. All vehicles are required to be removed from all roadways to allow for a better clearing job. All vehicles left on the road are subject to tow.

What about trash and recycling?

There will be no trash collection Tuesday. This means there will be a one day delay for the rest of the week on trash and recycling.
