Snow Storm Preparations

Good afternoon Stonington,
Just a few updates regarding the upcoming snow storm:
Snow is forecast to begin early in the day on Sunday and continue well into Monday. We can expect at least 8-14 inches with gusts to 30-35 miles per hour. Travel will be extremely difficult during portions of this storm. Please avoid driving if at all possible but if you must please slow down and give plow operators plenty of space.
Parking snow bans will be in effect. Please remove vehicles from public roadways. Vehicles left parked in the road may be ticketed and towed.
The landfill will be closed both Sunday and Monday. Curbside pick-up will not take place on Monday therefore all pick-ups will be delayed by one day. Example: Monday pick-up will take place Tuesday, Tuesday will take place Wednesday and so on.
Please stay prepared......temperatures after the storm will remain below freezing for several days. This can result in a number of issues for public utilities. Please have enough items such as food, water, medication and heating oil to last several days in the event of an emergency. Keep electronics including cell phones fully charged. Being prepared is extremely important especially during winter weather.
Additional updates will be posted throughout the weekend. Stay warm and safe!

WINTER STORM PREPAREDNESS

Good afternoon,
With the forecast indicating the potential for a significant winter storm on Sunday into Monday please take note of some simple tips to help prepare:
Please gather emergency supplies early to include food, water, medications and other essential items.
Ensure you have multiple ways to receive emergency alerts from the Town and other officials. The Town has several methods to deliver information to residents to include Facebook and Instagram Accounts, Everbridge STONINGTON ALERTS (sign up here https://www.stonington-ct.gov/home/pages/stonington-alerts and the Town of Stonington App (download the App on the App store by searching Town of Stonington or click here: https://apps.myocv.com/share/a122506379. )
Many vehicles have been left in the roadway untouched for several days since the last snow storm. Stonington Police will be placing notices on these vehicles for removal prior to the storm.
Please remember snow parking bans:
Parking shall be prohibited upon the streets of Stonington at times when two inches or more of snow has fallen until snow plowing operations are completed. Any vehicle in violation of the ban may be ticketed or towed.
In Stonington Borough, after two inches has fallen and until plowing operations are completed parking shall be prohibited on Water St and alternate sides of Main St and Elm St in the Borough of Stonington. Alternate side parking shall mean that parking is permitted on one side of the street only, such that on even-numbered days of the month vehicles may be parked on side of street with even numbered addresses and on odd days parking is allowed on side of street with odd numbered addresses.
DO NOT shovel or plow snow back into public roadways. This can impede traffic flow or cause hazardous conditions for motorists. Be patient as Department of Public Works and First Responders work to ensure the safety of everyone.
Additional updates will be forthcoming from the Town.
