* The Market Square Parking Lot is the only designated overnight parking lot during the winter months (from Nov. 15 – April 1).

Two rows have been assigned to allow vehicles to park overnight in this lot location. The rows have been designated as Odd and Even as to the calendar day.

Vehicles must be parked in the Odd or Even row based on the calendar day that a plow may be clearing the parking lot (from 2 a.m. to 6 a.m. in the morning) not the date and time you park your vehicle. For example: if the date is the 15^th and you are not moving your vehicle till the next following day, you should park in the Even row because the plow may need to clear the lot at 4 a.m. on 16^th. 

This change will help with proper snow removal and abandoned vehicles. Please take the time to read the sign in the lot and park your car in the right row to avoid receiving a parking ticket and/or having your vehicle towed.
