Snow is expected to start late Monday evening and continue through Tuesday morning. A second round of snow is predicted for Tuesday afternoon. The National Weather Service has estimated snowfall totals of between 2 and 5 inches to fall on the Chicago area.

Residents are asked to do their best to aid in snow removal efforts on side streets by getting their cars off the street following the village’s “odd-even” snow parking rules.

Village plows and street crews will hit the main business thoroughfares (Kedzie, 95th Street) before tackling the residential streets. Alleys are the last priority.

Whenever two or more inches of snow falls within 24 hours in the Village of Evergreen Park, all vehicles are required to comply with the following, according to the ordinances.

For residents who need help with snow removal, the Evergreen Park Youth Department has a full list of young people who are available to do hand-shoveling for a small fee (they do not drive or operate plows). The Youth Department can be reached at (708) 229-3377. Ms. Pyeisha will help match up the kids to the particular job requested
