Today's storm floods Children's Room at the Ansonia Library

 

Ansonia Police announce full parking ban during storm

The City of Ansonia is anticipating a significant winter storm this weekend into next week.

Right now it is expected that the storm will start early Sunday morning into Monday afternoon. Accumulation estimates vary but our area is expected to get over a foot of snow. The storm track is still fluctuating so these estimates may change as we get closer.

These accumulation totals will make it difficult for emergency vehicles and plows to work on city streets.

In anticipation of this winter storm, there will be a full parking ban on all city streets from Saturday night, January 24 at 7:00 pm until Monday night, January 26 at 11:00 pm.

These times may be adjusted or extended based on the track of the storm.

All residents must remove their vehicles from the street to assist with plowing and emergency services. Vehicles in violation will be ticketed and towed at owner’s expense, beginning Saturday night.

During the storm, all city parking lots including Nolan Field and Board of Education lots will be open for resident parking. Vehicles parked in the school lots should be removed by Monday night as the roads are cleared. Please remember to assist your neighbors and make sure that your vehicles are off the road. Trash pickup for Monday will be postponed until Tuesday. A decision on school and city building closures will be made before the storm arrives.
