Eagan's Winter Parking Restrictions Begin This Week

EAGAN, MN — If you recently moved to Eagan, you may not know the city's winter parking rules. Eagan has an odd/even winter parking schedule that goes into effect from Nov. 15 to April 15. Follow this schedule to avoid a fine this winter:

From 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

• On even days: Parking is allowed on the side of the street with even house addresses.
• On odd days: Parking is allowed on the side of the street with odd house addresses

From 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.

Parking is allowed on both sides of the street every night.

This ordinance is in effect whether there is snow on the ground or not. Vehicles in violation of the parking ordinance may be ticketed and/or towed. The reason for the ordinance is to provide for more efficient and safer snow removal, and to help identify abandoned or disabled vehicles.

Any object (fences, landscaping, etc.) that could hamper or be damaged by the snow removal operations should be removed from the boulevard area. Garbage awaiting pick-up must be placed at least 4 ft. behind the curb line.
