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 11:59 p.m., Monday, January 17, 2011 until noon on Tuesday, January 18, 2011. 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.

As an additional reminder, the normal snow ordinance is in effect where it is unlawful for any person to park or cause to be parked any vehicle on any public street within the City of Monona at any time within twelve (12) hours after a snow fall of two (2) inches or more, unless within such time the public street has been cleared of snow.
