Farmington Issues Parking Ban, Emergency Operation Center Activated

Farmington will have a parking ban in effect so that crews can clear the roads.

From Lt. Colin Ryan, Farmington Police:

The Town of Farmington is fully prepared to address the impending blizzard as it intensifies across the state. Residents are encouraged to remain home and stay safe during the storm.
There is a parking ban in effect on all Town of Farmington roads until noon on Thursday, January 29th Violators will be fined and towed. Please stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary. Give town road maintenance crews the time and space they need to clear the roadways, making them safe for emergency crews and motorists.

We have partially activated the Town of Farmington’s Emergency Operations Center allowing us to monitor the storm’s progress and manage any impact it will have on town operations and residents. We will coordinate with state agencies and public utilities to ensure power outages are addressed as quickly as possible.
We are prepared to open an emergency shelter on Wednesday if necessary. We will update media should this occur.
