Starting Wednesday, the City of Algoma will enforce ordinances that ban the overnight parking of vehicles on the streets. The laws are in place to give street departments the ability to clear snowfall off the roadways safely and quickly. The timing comes after the first significant snowfall of the season on Tuesday afternoon. The parking ordinance is from 2 a.m.- 5 a.m. The overnight parking ordinances are in effect through March 31, and violations may result in a citation and the towing of vehicles at the owner’s expense. The City of Algoma has made an exception to residents on Division Street affected by construction on the roadway who have limited access to the street and driveways.
The municipalities of Sturgeon Bay and Kewaunee have street overnight parking ordinances in place starting on December 1st.
