Plattsburgh city councilors have approved changing parking requirements during snow emergencies.

On-street parking in Plattsburgh during snowstorms will be now be restricted until snow emergency lights stop flashing. Previously, parking was restricted from midnight until 6 a.m.

Mayor Chris Rosenquest explained that crews need the additional time to clean the snow from the streets.

“A six hour window between 12 a.m. and 6 a.m. is just not always enough time to manage large amounts of snow efficiently.”

The new snow emergency parking requirement is effective immediately.
