The Marinette Police Department would like to remind
area residents that the overnight parking ban will go into effect on December
1, 2019 at 1 a.m.
The ordinance does
not state that it must snow before the ordinance can be enforced. It states that there will be NO overnight parking on City of
Marinette streets or City of Marinette owned property (including parking lots)
from the hours of 1 a.m. through 7 a.m. starting December 1st
through April 1st. The
ordinance is written in this manner so that in the event of snow overnight,
vehicles will already be removed.
Parking on the tree lawn is not an acceptable alternative unless a
permit is obtained from the Civic Affairs, Cemetery, Traffic & Lights
Committee. The property owner would need
to demonstrate that not allowing the property owner to utilize the tree lawn or
public right-of-way would constitute a hardship and allowing said parking does
not constitute a traffic hazard.
Residents are also reminded that overnight parking
violation penalties are $40.00 and they double if not paid within
72 hours.
Overnight parking tickets will be issued beginning
December 1st at 1 a.m. All
citizens are urged to find parking accommodations if they have not already done
so.
