Snow Parking Ordinance
Does the Village impose a parking ban?
In an effort to keep our residents safe and streets cleared during the winter, the Village of Romeoville has instituted a new snow parking ordinance. This ordinance is designed to limit on-street parking during snow removal to allow plows to access and clear the streets during the winter. Odd/Even street parking requires residents to park along the odd-numbered side of village streets on odd-numbered calendar days and on the even-numbered side of village streets on even numbered calendar days. A calendar day shall commence at 6 a.m. The new guidelines are as follows:

In an effort to keep our residents safe and streets cleared during the winter, the Village of Romeoville has instituted a new snow parking ordinance. This ordinance is designed to limit on-street parking during snow removal to allow plows to access and clear the streets during the winter. Odd/Even street parking requires residents to park along the odd-numbered side of village streets on odd-numbered calendar days and on the even-numbered side of village streets on even numbered calendar days. A calendar day shall commence at 6 a.m. The new guidelines are as follows:
- Odd/Even parking will go into effect upon the accumulation of 2 inches of snow on the Village streets and will remain in effect until snow removal operations are complete.
- The switch over time for odd-even parking will be changed to 6 a.m.
- The fine for snow related parking violations will be $50.
- Officers will patrol Village streets and immediately issue parking citations and a 24 hour tow notice to any vehicles found in violation of the odd-even parking ordinance.
- Vehicles parked on streets designated as parking prohibited after two inches of snow fall will be ticketed and towed immediately.
These restrictions do not apply to Grand Haven, Highpoint, Wespark (besides Wespark Pkwy, Wespark Circle and Wespark Blvd.), Lakewood Falls (unincorporated), Carillon, Remington, Malibu Bay Townhomes and Romeo Gardens.
Odd-even parking restrictions do not apply when there is no parking on one side of the street.
During snow events, the Romeoville Police may knock on your door, sometimes during very odd hours, as the plows come through. This is a courtesy attempt to have your vehicle moved off the street so that you are not ticketed and towed. The Romeoville Police encourage our residences to verify it is an officer before opening your door.
