City spokesperson Jen Loesch said Auroras snow crew is working and that the city will begin ticketing vehicles parked on narrow streets tomorrow morning; residents were urged to clear driveways and use yards or driveways to avoid blocking plows.
Jen Loesch, speaking for the City of Aurora, said the citys snow crew was "out working hard" and that enforcement will begin the following morning for vehicles parked on tight, narrow streets. "Tomorrow morning, we are gonna be ticketing people who are parked on the streets on tighter, narrow streets," she said.
Loesch said the enforcement is intended to help plows reach all streets and urged residents to clear their driveways and relocate cars off narrow streets where possible. "You can definitely clean off your driveway and put as many cars in the driveway as you possibly can," she said, adding that parking in yards is an option to keep streets clear for snow removal.
The announcement did not specify exact enforcement hours, ticket amounts, or which streets would be targeted beyond the description "tighter, narrow streets." Loesch framed the measure as part of routine winter operations to allow plows to pass and keep streets accessible; she did not announce any additional policy changes or vote. The city encouraged neighbors to assist one another during the storm, particularly residents who may have difficulty clearing snow.
