SNOW EMERGENCY DECLARATION – ODD / EVEN PARKING ORDINANCE
Due to anticipated weather conditions throughout the overnight hours, the Director of Public
Works has declared a “Snow Emergency” for the City of Rockford as specified below.
Enforcement teams will be deployed to ticket offenders.
$63.00 Fines are being issued if you violate this ordinance.
Effective: Thursday, December 22, 2022 8:00AM
Parking: Even Addressed Side of Streets
Contractors are on standby and will begin plowing residential streets when snow accumulation
reaches approximately 2 inches in depth.
The odd/even parking will be in effect until the public works department deems it is no longer
necessary. Updates to the snow emergency will be provided at appropriate times throughout the
remainder of the storm.
WHAT DOES THE ODD/EVEN PARKING MEAN TO ME?
In order for our crews to remove snow and ice from city streets, we must have the ability to safely and
effectively maneuver a plow up and down our streets. If a snow or ice storm reaches the point that
streets are becoming difficult to clear, city officials can declare a Snow Emergency.
A Snow Emergency requires that vehicles be parked on the odd side of the street when the date ends in
an odd number and on the even side of the street when the date ends on an even number.
For example, on January 5th, you would park on the odd side of the street.
If the snow emergency carries into the next day, at 8:00 AM your car should be moved to the even side of the street.
