The <br /> Superintendent reported that he is recommending adoption of Chis ban for <br /> safety and efficiency reasons related to snow plowing. The <br /> SuperintendenC explained that the City's current winter parking regulations <br /> prohibit on-street parking when a snowfall of 2 inches or more occurs. He <br /> noted that Chis can be confusing for property owners as well as noted Chat <br /> at times it is necessary to plow snowfalls of less than 2 inches.
