MONROE - The Monroe Police Department, in conjunction with the Monroe Street Department, reminds all drivers that calendar parking regulations for the City of Monroe began at midnight Nov. 15 and will continue through March 31, 2011.
Drivers must park on the even side of the streets and avenues on even numbered dates - and on the odd side on odd numbered dates. Vehicles should be parked at night on the side of the street or avenues that will be in effect after midnight. A quick method to determine if you live on the odd or even side is to look at your house address number, and then park accordingly.
Citations for ordinance violations begin at $20 and increase for multiple offenses.
Nearly all areas in the city are covered by these regulations, except for the downtown Square and one-block in any direction of the Square.
The city also has areas downtown and in the Smoky Row area, which are snow routes. If there is snowfall of more than two inches, all vehicles must be removed from the street for snow removal.
These area are marked with signs indicating the snow route area. Finally, citizens are reminded that snow and ice must be removed from sidewalks as soon as possible following snowfall, for safety purposes. It is a violation of city ordinances to shovel, blow, throw or plow snow from private property into the street or onto the property of another.
