JAMESTOWN – The city of Jamestown’s Public Works department is asking for help from residents when it comes to clearing city streets of snow.
City plow operators often face various obstacles while working to keep the City streets clear. A frequent occurrence that hampers their efforts occurs when city residents are not following the alternate parking rules.
When residents do not move their vehicles timely during alternate parking months, plow drivers are often unable to maneuver between cars that are parked on both sides of the street. This affects the City’s efforts to access many streets for snow removal and ice control.
Vehicles are to be moved at 10 a.m., there is no grace period before or after that time.
In addition, there is no parking downtown between the hours of 2 a.m. and 7 a.m.
According to the City Code, any vehicle in violation may be ordered removed by the Chief of Police or other authorized personnel under his command.
