The overnight winter parking ban in the Township of Leeds and the Thousand Islands (TLTI) will continue to be enforced, according to a recent announcement by the township’s council.
The ban, which prohibits parking on all township roads between 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. from November 1st to April 1st, aims to ensure the safety of residents and road maintenance crews during the winter season.
The decision to maintain the ban was made after careful consideration of the current weather conditions and the potential impact on road safety. The council also took into account the feedback from residents and the recommendations of the township’s Public Works Department.
The township’s Mayor, Corinna Smith-Gatcke, emphasized the importance of adhering to the ban, stating that it is crucial for the safety of all residents. She also urged residents to make alternative arrangements for overnight parking during the winter months.
The township’s Public Works Department will continue to monitor the weather and road conditions to determine if any changes to the ban are necessary. In the event of a significant snowfall or other extreme weather conditions, the ban may be extended to ensure the safety of residents and efficient road maintenance.
Residents are reminded that failure to comply with the overnight winter parking ban may result in a fine and/or the vehicle being towed at the owner’s expense.
The township’s council and Public Works Department are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all residents during the winter season. They urge residents to stay informed and follow the ban to help keep the roads safe for everyone.
