the city issued a parking ban at 9:38pm last night for Odd side of the street.

There was a reverse 911 call and a SeeClickFix email issued that clearly stated the start and stop times of the ban. It was also repeated on WTNH news

There was a parking ban all day yesterday, For every town and city in the state.I heard until Wednesday , Some might have been lifted..I've only heard of nighttime towing in the downtown vicinity.
Even though the ban was in place it still reeks of an on the sneak attack.They're a fippy floppy bunch at Public Works, reactionary and over reactionary..Yes a money maker , as main streets with one or two cars only are left alone , the plows go around if at all.But when a bingo is spotted then they pounce.

The parking ban was announced in multiple places, in multiple ways. Print Media, Social Media (See Click Fix, Facebook etc) City Website, Flyers, automated Emergency Notification System, Local News (TV), Online News etc.

Is the right hand side the ODD or EVEN numbered side of the street? That snow ban is still going on. Theyre gonna tow anything on the ODD side of the street. The city gave plenty of warning.

I doubt there being some grand conspiracy of a sneak attack. Rules say move your car, so move your car. That's common sense. The city made it clear, what more do you want them to do?? I would hate for my street to not get cleared because of someone else. Just me.

The truth is that on many streets the city has NEVER before been reliable about clearing snow, so we got used to leaving our cars and digging ourselves out. The first year I lived here (2005) I moved my car for each storm, and the odd side was NEVER plowed, so I just gave up. If they are changing the rules of the game, I feel they needed to do more than repeat the same information about bans and plowing that was repeated for years, because we could never rely on it. That's the unfair part of it.
