CITY OF SOUTH LAKE TAHOE

SNOW CONDITIONS EXIST:

• Generally from October 15 through April 15 every year.

• When in excess of three (3) inches of snow has fallen (accumulated) on the ground and until streets have been cleared to their full widths. This may occur while you are away from your car, so even if snow conditions did not exist when you left your car, you are still subject to citation and/or tow. The best policy is to keep your vehicle(s) parked off the streets at all times.

• Cars subject to citation and/or tow are those parked in the street right-of-way. (City Code Section 26-40) The City right-of-way extends beyond the edge of the pave-ment to the property line,  generally 5 to 10 feet beyond the edge of the pavement.

• The City is asking that you keep all trash containers behind the berm, on your property. Improper placement of trash containers can result in damaged containers and/or snow removal equipment. This affects the level of service we are able to provide to the community.

• WINTER HINT: When shoveling snow from your driveway, shovel to the right as you face the street. This way, the plow will move the snow further down the road, rather than move the shoveled snow back into your driveway. It is the occupant's responsibility to properly mark their driveway & remove any berm left by snow removal operations. (City Code Section 26-21)
