Seasonal parking restrictions
The cost for snow removal doubles in an area when we have to go back and plow it after illegally parked vehicles have been moved. Citizens can help us reduce costs and remove snow more quickly by complying with the seasonal parking restrictions.
Seasonal night parking restrictions are in place from Nov. 1 through April 15 (city ordinance 8-1009) and restrict parking on the street between 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. These restrictions allow city employees to remove snow and perform critical street maintenance. Street signs noting the restrictions are located in the affected areas. These areas are:
- From 19th Avenue North to 13th Avenue South;
- From the Red River to 25th Street North and South; and
- Any other area designated by the appropriate signs; these areas include sections of the
city where parking is restricted on Fridays and the central business district, which has year-round restrictions.
The restrictions apply on alternate days as follows:
- Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays: east/west avenues
- Tuesday, Thursdays and Saturdays: north/south streets
This policy will be actively enforced, especially during times of snowfall. Vehicles violating the policy may be impounded by the Fargo Police Department.
If you have questions about this policy, please call 241-1453.
