Oswego mayor: winter parking ban ‘working,’ enforcement to be weather-driven
Summary
The mayor reported the recent winter parking ban has been broadly observed; initial nights saw courtesy notices and enforcement will continue on a hybrid, weather-dependent basis coordinated with the Department of Public Works.
The mayor reported that a newly instituted winter parking ban, first enforced Monday night, appears to be working and that police issued courtesy notices as reminders during the first two nights.
"The parking ban was put on Monday night. And, I'm happy to report that it seems to be working quite well," the mayor said during the council's report. The mayor said the city posted the ban on its social media channels and notified the local television station.
The mayor described the ban as a hybrid measure going forward, saying enforcement will be adjusted daily based on weather conditions and in consultation with the commissioner of the Department of Public Works. The meeting record did not include a written ordinance or a scheduled end date for the ban.
The mayor also encouraged support for a local theatrical production and noted other routine items on the agenda. There was no formal council action tied to the mayor's parking update during the meeting.
