All-Night Parking Ban Begins November 15th

Interim Town Manager, Paul Watson, has declared an all-night parking ban on all Billerica roadways from November 15, 2009 until March 15, 2010. Vehicles found parked in the roadway longer than two (2) hours between midnight and 6:00 AM during the above dates will be tagged and subject to a fine. If a parked vehicle interferes with snow removal, a fine will be assessed and the vehicle will be subject to towing. Upon declaration of a snow emergency by the Town Manager, parking on all public ways will be prohibited. Vehicles found parked on public ways will be fined $50.00 and towed. The Chief of Police requests the cooperation of all residents to comply with this public safety ordinance to insure that snow plowing operations will not be hampered by illegally parked vehicles.
