The following is a news release from the city of Idaho Falls.
IDAHO FALLS — The Idaho Falls Street Department began plowing major roads at 4 a.m. Wednesday morning following a winter storm that blanketed Idaho Falls with snow during the night.
The recent accumulation of snow has exceeded two inches, which qualifies as a snow event according to the City’s Snow and Ice Control Policies and Procedures Manual. As a result, parking restrictions are in place from now until the city issues another notice lifting them.
Vehicles parked on streets after a snow event is called are subject to ticketing and relocation of the vehicle in accordance with snow removal parking restrictions.
