Carefully review the map and the step by step explanation of Lincoln's Snow Removal Plan. During inclement weather, please keep / informed on the status of snow removal operations. The news media will announce when Snow Emergencies or residential parking bans are declared. If you have questions about snow removal efforts or the parking bans, call the SNOW CENTER, 441-7644. $ Sanding Operations When freezing precipitation begins to fall, Public Works trucks begin spreading material on major streets, bus routes and known trouble spots. This phase doesn't involve a parking ban. However, the status of snow removal operations may change as a storm intensifies, so keep informed. $ Snow Emergency When m$jor streets must be plowed, the Mayor may declare a SNOW EMERGENCY. During a Snow Emergency, parking is banned on Emergency Snow Routes, alt Arterial Streets and Bus Routes. Cars parked or stalled on these streets are subject to a $40 fine and could be towed at the owner's expense. Snow routes must remain open for emergency vehicles, so these streets receive top priority. Snow routes and arterial streets are shown on the map. Look for bus route signs to identify bus routes in residential areas. $ Residential Parking Bans Residential streets are NOT plowed after every storm. When a residential clean-up operation is required, the Mayor will declare a residential parking ban. The fine for parking in violation of the ban is $25 and illegally parked cars could be towed. In high density population areas, parking will be banned on either the even or s odd-numbered sides of the street. In the remaining residential areas, parking will be banned on both sides. The news media will indicate when these bans go into effect and are rescinded. Following is an explanation of the residential parking restrictions. Odd-Even Parking Ban. For shaded areas on j|| the map, the Mayor will declare a parking ban on 11 either the even or odd-numbered side of the street. Once all streets have been cleared on one 11 side, the ban will be switched to the other side. The news media will indicate when the ban is switched or is rescinded. Total Parking Ban. Parking will be banned on || both sides of the street in residential * neighborhoods not included in the shaded areas of the map. Parking will be allowed on these streets, once snow is cleared from both sides, if you anticipate an off-street parking problem, please plan in advance where you will park. While this plan will save time and money, it will require community cooperation. CITY OF LINCOLN MIKE JOHANNS, MAYOR I , " 4 . ' 7 W
