This notice is to remind citizens who live/work on or are adjacent to an Emergency Snow Route that the City Manager can declare a winter storm traffic emergency "whenever snow has accumulated or there is a possibility that snow will accumulate to such a depth that snow clearing/removal operations will be required…" When this occurs, it will be "unlawful to park a vehicle on any street designated as an Emergency Snow Route."
Citizens are asked to plan now, before the snow falls, to locate an alternate site to park vehicles off the street. By City Ordinance, if a winter storm traffic emergency is declared and vehicles are not moved, the vehicles will be towed away at the owner's expense.
To be on the safe side, a general rule of thumb is – when snow begins to fall – move the vehicles.
The public's cooperation is greatly appreciated. If there are questions, please contract the Hays Police Department at 625-1011 or the Hays Public Works Department at 628-7350.
Listen to KBSH-TV, KAYS, KHAZ, KJLS, KKQY, and KFIX radio stations for updates regarding advisories to move vehicles.
Have a safe winter.
Hays Police Department and Hays Public Works Department
