HARTFORD PARKING BAN AT 6:00PM

TODAY AT 6:00 P.M.: MAYOR BRONIN DECLARES SNOW EMERGENCY PARKING BAN

— NEWS AND COMMUNITY STATEMENT—

(February 5, 2016) Hartford Mayor Luke Bronin has declared a snow emergency parking ban for the City of Hartford, beginning at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, February 5, 2016 and ending at 9 a.m. on Saturday, February 6, 2016. All Hartford District Public School will parking lots will be available for parking.  However, cars must be moved by noon on Saturday.

“With heavy snow falling throughout the day and temperatures plummeting tonight, it’s critical that we allow our DPW team to clear the streets before we accumulate frozen material that’s difficult to plow," said Bronin. "This ban will allow us to plow curb to curb and get the streets cleared quickly.  I urge residents without off-street parking to move their vehicles to one of our district school lots once the parking ban goes into effect.”

During a snow emergency parking ban, all on-street parking is prohibited throughout the City of Hartford. Any vehicles not removed from City streets by the start of the parking ban will be ticketed and towed. Residents without access to off-street parking should move their vehicles to one of the following authorized parking areas before the start of the parking ban:

·         Colt Park – Warwarme Street Lot                 
·         Dillon Stadium – Curcombe Street Lot     
·         Elizabeth Park – Asylum Street                  
·         Elizabeth Park – Prospect Avenue            
·         Goodwin Park – Hubbard Avenue            
·         Goodwin Park – Maple Ave. Golf Course                     
·         Keney Park – Woodland Street            
·         Keney Park – Ridgefield Street             
·         Pope Park –Park Terrace Lot   
·         2 Holcomb Street Lot
·         80 Coventry Lot
·         KDA Center Lot – Naugatuck Street            
·         All Hartford District School Parking Lots. For a complete list, visit www.hartfordschools.org/schools and select “District.”

Residents should remove their vehicles from the lots promptly following the end of the parking ban. Residents whose vehicles are towed during the parking ban should contact the Hartford Police Department at (860) 757-4000. The cost for retrieving a towed vehicle is $93.59. An additional $99.00 ticket will be issued, which owners are responsible for paying before the answer date. Please visit http://www.hartford.gov/snow-parking for a list of snow emergency parking locations, and for information regarding towed vehicles.

With the sun shining and warmer weather, the parking ban from 6pm to 9am this morning was too long, way too long.

At least you new mayor doesn't blame suburbanites for dumping snow in your streets

The "other" mayor was a joke, sick in the head. Pedro was never wrong, always blaming someone else. Always.

15 hrs. parking ban throughout the city is excessive. Could have chosen 9AM to 5PM today instead so the trucks can go around in day light while residents go to the malls or other places.

Pedro Segarra never wrong indeed. He didn't even like the caviar at Max the other day, but the heck with it, Hartford tax payers were paying the bill.

9:30 AM what you suggested would have brought efficiency, save the city chunk of money and be much more convenient to Hartford residents. However, with Aponte-Cruz still at DPW, don't expect any improvement.

Pedro Maria Segarra loves caviar, he always did, and he loves it more when the public pays for it. This's why he's called Pedro Caviar.

Cruz-Aponte doesn't live in Hartford, she doesn't understand the burden of parking far from home in school parking. Cruz-Aponte just want to look good in front of her superiors, have easy job and as much convenience as possible.
