What is the odd / even parking ordinance (Alternate Parking)?

Seasonal Parking Rules, October 15 to April 15: To avoid being ticketed, please abide by the following rules when parking on all city streets, except streets posted “No Parking 3:00 am – 7:00 am.”

  • Park on the even-numbered side (north/west) of the street on even-numbered days.
  • Park on the odd-numbered side (south/east) of the street on odd-numbered days.
  • The change-over time is from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm; after 7:00 pm you need to be parked on the side of the street for the next day.
  • Parking is permitted on both sides of the street in areas posted "No Parking 3:00 am – 7:00 am."

Ensure that you are parked on the appropriate side of the street when restrictions go into effect October 15 - before you go to bed, think ahead! If you have questions please call (231) 723-2533.
