It's winter again, so during a winter weather event, Crestwood plows need to safely navigate our streets. Since this is the 2020 Winter Season (an even year), street parking is only allowed on EVEN sides of the street (based on house numbers).
A note from City of Crestwood Staff
VEHICLES PARKED ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE STREET DURING SNOW EVENTS WILL BE TICKETED AND REQUIRED TO MOVE IMMEDIATELY
As snow accumulates, the main goal of the City’s Public Works Department is to get the City’s streets plowed as quickly as possible, so that traffic can flow smoothly and safely, with the least inconvenience to businesses and residents. Reducing or eliminating the number of vehicles that are parked on the street, allows snow plow crews to work faster, safer and to more completely clear the streets.
The City’s leaders ask residents with driveways and/or garages to use them for parking their vehicles during snow events.
Unfortunately, an unavoidable downside of plowing is that snow will be pushed to the right side of the snow plow truck, and always towards driveways. For this reason, property owners may want to refrain from clearing snow from driveways until after the snowplows have cleared the street for the first time. Snow from driveways should be placed to the sides, not into the streets, to avoid future snowplows from pushing this snow back into driveways.
IT IS SOLELY THE RESPONSIBILITY OF PROPERTY OWNERS TO CLEAR THEIR DRIVEWAYS AND SIDEWALKS
