Snow Emergency and Parking Regulations

A “Snow Emergency” is declared in order to allow for the movement of emergency vehicles and snow removal equipment. The declaration of a Snow Emergency means that all major streets are off limits for parking and side streets are restricted to 'alternate side' parking until the Snow Emergency expires.

Vehicles parked on any major thoroughfare will be ticketed and towed as will vehicles parked on side streets on the wrong side. 

In addition, vehicles left ‘buried’ in snow after ANY snowfall will be cited and towed after 72 hours.

The "major thoroughfares" described in the City ordinance are:

• S. 27th Street
• S. 35th Street
• S. 43rd Street
• S. 51st Street
• S. 60th Street
• S. 68th Street
• S. 76th Street
• S. 84th Street
• S. 92nd Street
• S. 104th Street
• S. 112th Street
• S. 116th Street
• S. 124th Street
• W. Morgan Avenue
• W. Howard Avenue
• W. Coldspring Road
• W. Layton Avenue
• W. Edgerton Avenue
• W. Grange Avenue
• W. Ramsey Avenue
• W. College Avenue
• W. Loomis Road
• W. Forest Home Avenue
• W. Beloit Road
• S. 31st Street between W. Edgerton Avenue and W. Grange Avenue

Parking on any of these streets during a Snow Emergency will result in a parking citation and towing of your vehicle.

All other streets must observe "alternate side" parking. This means that the vehicle has to park on the "even side" of the street (the side of the street with even address numbers) on an even day of the month and the "odd side" of the street on an odd day of the month.

For example, if today is February 2nd. Vehicles on side streets during the snow emergency must be parked on the even side of the street and must remain on the even side until February 3rd.

Please call the Greenfield Police Department with questions about parking BEFORE you leave your vehicle.
