Street sweeping parking restrictions to be extended until 2:00 PM

A year after Somerville instituted citywide parking permit restrictions, more sweeping changes have arrived. Street cleaning hours are being extended from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
[...]
Since the city needs time to change signs and educate the public, no street cleaning tickets will be issued from noon to 2 p.m. until April, Meehan said.

I don't know how many people have been moving their cars to the restricted side of the road after noon but before 2:00 - certainly not me - but maybe someone will be affected by this.

The streets I use in Cambridge are perfectly clean even when it's been almost a month. I've compared the two sides of these streets when one side has just been cleaned and the other hasn't, and I can't tell the difference.

Right now there's a lot of leaves in the gutter. But they're not a problem, and there are leaves in plenty of other places as well.

The biggest sanitary problem is leaky garbage trucks which drip trash juice all over the city.
