What is the policy about parking and street sweeping when there is snow on the ground?

Do you think that would stop them from ticketing? I honestly don't know.

Isn't this year (or maybe last year) the first year they've done street sweeping past December 1st?

I am more concerned with the ticketing than the actual sweeping. i'll move my car tonight, it's already dug out.

You could also try calling 311 and seeing what they say... though I think that only works during business hours.

i tried 311, but i can't talk to a person unless it's an emergency, and i don't think this qualifies as on

If you live in Ward 6, call your Alderman:

Rebekah L. Gewirtz (Ward 6)
36 College Ave #53
Somerville, MA 02144
(617) 718-0792
rebekah@RCN.com

Chances are she's trapped at home and she should know the answer. I'm not a Ward 6'er right now, but I've called other Aldermen on the weekends and they've always been AOK with it (this kind of thing is their job).

That's probably Ward 7. You can look up here (http://www.wheredoivotema.com/bal/myelectioninfo.php).

Anecdotally (for what it's worth), even though street sweeping is in effect still this month, they haven't been ticketing on my street once there was snow on the ground.
