Santa Claus is not just coming to town, he’s also gifting residents and their visitors hassle-free on-street parking this holiday season.
Unless there’s a major snowfall on December 24 to 26 and/or December 31 and January 1, you and your visitors can park without obtaining a parking permit or worrying about receiving a ticket if you park for more than three hours or overnight.
“We want our residents and visitors to have one less thing to worry about during this busy season,” says Town of Stouffville Municipal Law Enforcement Supervisor Teresa Hector. “Have your family and friends over safely for the holidays without concern of parking restrictions for guests.”
The lifted restrictions become null and void if there’s a major snowfall and you and your visitors will be expected to remove vehicles from the streets so snow removal vehicles can safely do their job.
Winter restrictions for on-street parking take effect December 1 until March 31. On typical days, the restrictions prohibit all on-street parking between 2 and 6 a.m. Vehicles violating the Town’s parking bylaw may be ticketed, with fines beginning at $50.
