In preparation for a major snow storm forecast for the area, pursuant to Municipal Code 10-1-26, Mayor Robb Kahl has declared a General Snow Emergency for the City of Monona effective 10 p.m. Thursday, December 18, 2008 until 10 pm Friday, December 19, 2008. During a declared general snow emergency no person shall park any vehicle at any time on a designated snow emergency route and no person shall park any vehicle on any other street within the city.
The police department will begin towing vehicles that are parked on any Monona Street obstructing the snow removal operation. It is essential to have the roadways clear so that Public Works personnel can clear streets during the early morning hours.
All City of Monona Park parking lots may be used to park your vehicles until the end of the snow emergency.

ReplyDeleteI have not been out yet, but the crew did my street (Thunderbird) so I know the other streets must be in good shape.

I think the snow emergency declarations have been great. My neighbors always had vehicles parked on the street in storms and the plow would swing way out at my house to get around their cars. I ended up having to shovel an extra 2 to 3 feet beyond the driveway. Now everyone is off the street and the plows can do their work unimpeded.
