JERSEY CITY – Mayor Steven Fulop in coordination with the Office of Emergency Management announced that Jersey City will continue its snow removal plan for the main thoroughfares and commercial districts on Feb. 20 that will have the snow hauled to vacant city, county, and state property.

Residents are asked to not park on the above portions of streets from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m. on Feb. 20, or until snow has been visibly removed. Parking on these streets is permissible if residents are able to move their vehicles when police traveling along with the plows sound their sirens to do so. Like previous days, the city will not ticket or tow but asks for cooperation from residents to move their vehicles so the work can be done quickly and efficiently.
Additional information will be released with the same procedures of non-parking for snow removal and residents are advised to visit the city website at www.jerseycitynj.gov, JC1TV, and the City Facebook page and Twitter feed for updates.
