ODD-EVEN PARKING IN EFFECT DECEMBER 1, 2009

The City of Manchester’s overnight winter on street odd/even parking ordinance will go into effect on December 1st 2009

Where parking is normally allowed on a street, the Ordinance permits vehicles to be parked only on the odd numbered side of a street on odd numbered calendar days, and only on the even numbered side of a street on even numbered calendar days beginning after 1:00 AM and until 6:00 AM in the morning. This means that when you park your car in the evening of a odd numbered day, it should be parked on the even side of the street, because it will be an even day as of 1:00 AM. If parking is presently allowed on only one side of the street during the day, then parking will be permitted on that side of the street every night. NO overnight parking will be permitted on the circular portion of dead end cul-de-sacs! Those in violation of this Ordinance, will be subject to a $25.00 fine. The exception is a “Pilot Program Area” bounded by Canal Street on the west, Elm Street on the east, Pleasant Street on the south and Mechanic Street on the north.
 
Any vehicle parked in violation of a Snow Emergency Declaration will be removed and impounded. Vehicles which are so impounded, will be stored at the City’s Vehicle Impoundment Area. Vehicles removed will be stored in Derryfield Park off Bridge Street. In order to recover an impounded vehicle, the owner will be required to present proof of ownership and to make a payment of $110.00 in cash, certified check or money order payable to the City of Manchester. This must be done within 24 hours of the time when the vehicle was towed. Vehicles not recovered within 24 hours, will be subject to aditional towing and storage charges.
 
Snow Emergency parking is available at the Victory Parking Garage at 25 Vine Street between 10PM and 6AM. Vehicles entering before 10PM or leaving after 6AM WILL be subject to parking fees of $.75 per hour. The Pearl Street parking lot on Orange Street between Pearl and Chestnut is also available between 6PM and 7AM. Unauthorized vehicles in the lot outside of these times WILL be subject to parking tickets.
