The Public Works Director, or designee, is authorized to declare a snow or ice event whenever it becomes necessary to clear the streets of snow and ice to effectuate the movement of vehicles. Factors which constitute a snow or ice event include, but are not limited to, the accumulation of snow or ice on any street or area which hinders the safe movement of traffic or impedes the ability of emergency vehicles and public vehicles to travel safely and expeditiously over such streets or areas.

A snow or ice event declared shall remain in effect for 24 hours unless specifically extended by the Public Works Director, or designee, through a second declaration.

No owner or operator of any motor vehicle shall park or leave standing any vehicle, trailer, boat or similar item upon any public street or alley during the duration of a snow or ice event.

More information can be found in City of Lodi Ordinance Chapter 352-4 Winter Parking.

Snow or ice events will be posted as an alert to the City’s website and local news outlets will be notified. Sign up for City Alerts for notification of snow or ice events.
