Unincorporated SLCo Residents Asked To Remove Cars from Streets, Shovel Walks


Residents Asked To
Remove Cars from
Streets, Shovel Walks



Motor vehicles parked on streets during winter snow storms are a serious public safety hazard. Salt Lake County enforcement officials are asking for the public’s cooperation to get vehicles off the streets during snow storms or anytime snow is on the road.

Streets cannot be properly cleared with parked cars on them. Unplowed streets are hazards for the general driving public and emergency response vehicles. County ordinances prohibit parking on county streets the months of November through March during snow events and any time there is snow on the road.

While the County is asking for voluntary compliance in getting vehicles off the street so snow can be plowed, citations will be issued to owners of vehicles parked during snow events; those vehicles may be towed away.

In those residential areas with sidewalks, residents are being asked to keep the walkways as clear as possible within 12 hours of the end of a snowstorm. And residents are asked to clean the snow off fire hydrants in their neighborhoods. Buried hydrants can delay response to structure fires.
