In an effort to provide Barnesville residents with the
ability to easily travel on city streets during the
winter, the city has established the following parking
restrictions.
After a snowfall of approximately two inches, or more,
vehicles parked on any city street or avenue, that is
not otherwide posted, must be removed prior to 8:00
a.m. on the day following the day that street or avenue
is first plowed. Vehicles may not be returned until
after such street or avenue has been plowed and widened
to its full width. At that time, the restrictions imposed
by this ordinance shall cease until the next snowfall.
In addition, it is unlawful for any resident to push,
blow, or otherwise place snow from any portion of their
property onto city streets or avenues.
During other times of the year, the Chief of Police
or the Street Superintendent may direct that notices
be placed on vehicles parked on any particular street
or avenue or that the entire street or avenue be posted
with notice requiring that all parked vehicles be removed
from all portions of such street or avenue as needed,
from time to time, for street cleaning, street maintenance,
or any other purpose on a temporary basis.
Violation of this ordinance shall be considered a
petty misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $100.00.
Additionally, vehicles violating this ordinance may
be impounded and will be released to the owner only
upon payment of the towing charges, daily impound fees
of $10.00 per day, the petty misdemeanor fine, and any
other costs relating to the towing and impound of the
vehicle.
