councillor Castro Liu -Richmond Hill Declared Winter Event

Posted in York Region News

 

Dear Ward 3 Residents,

Winter Event Declarations

A 'winter event' is declared when an icefall or an accumulation of snow that is likely to exceed 5cm may occur within the next 24 hours. Not all snowfalls that result in plowing warrant a winter event.

A 'significant weather event' may be declared when an approaching or occurring extreme weather hazard has the potential to pose danger to users of roadways and sidewalks. Extreme weather conditions include freezing rain, significant snowfall, strong winds, blowing snow and reduced visibility. As a result, it may take longer than normal to complete winter maintenance activities.

 

When winter events have been declared, on-street parking is prohibited and temporary on-street parking permits are no longer valid.

You cannot park on the street when the City of Richmond Hill has declared a winter event which is expected to require snow clearing. If your vehicle is parked on the road, you may receive a ticket and have to pay a fine. If your vehicle is in the way of our plows, salters or emergency vehicles, it could be towed.

 

Temporary Parking Permits

When a winter event is declared, temporary on-street parking permits are not valid for on-street parking. During this time, you can park at select City-owned facilities if you cannot arrange alternative off-street parking. Please ensure that the temporary parking permit is displayed clearly on your vehicle’s dash. A list of select City-owned facilities can be found at RichmondHill.ca/ParkingPermits.
