WINTER PARKING REGULATIONS
The City of White Bear Lake begins its plowing activities whenever snow accumulation
or slippery conditions make driving difficult. Depending on conditions, city
crews typically start plowing by 2:00 a.m. This is the time when White Bear Lake’s
winter parking ordinance requires that all vehicles be off public streets, alleys and culde-
sacs until the streets have been plowed entirely from curb to curb. The following
ordinances have been adopted to assist with uniform compliance of these
regulations.
603.060 PARKING; WINTER PARKING
No owner of a motor vehicle shall leave, park or permit the same to stand on
any City street, alley or in a Municipal Parking Lot for more than twenty-
four (24) hours during the period from November 1st through April 1st of
each year.
603.070 PARKING; PARKING AFTER SNOWFALL
No owner of a vehicle shall leave, park or permit same to stand on any City
street, alley or in a Municipal Parking Lot, except in compliance with the
direction of a police officer, for a period of time commencing immediately
after the accumulation thereon of three (3) inches or more of snow, and
continuing until the snow has been removed to the full width of the street,
alley or parking lot.
603.080 PARKING; TOWING AND STORAGE, LIEN
The City Manager is hereby authorized and empowered to have removed
any vehicle on any street, alley or in a Municipal Parking Lot in violation of
Sections 603.060 and 603.070 of the Code or stalled thereon and to have
such vehicle placed in a garage or outdoor area by any person engaged in
the general garage or filling station business in the City. Such vehicle shall
not be removed there from until reasonable costs of storing and towing same
have been fully paid. The City Manager shall have the further authority to
direct employees of the City to remove any such vehicle and in that event
the City Manager may impose a charge to be paid to the City Clerk b e f o r e
said vehicle may be taken or recovered by the owner thereof.
In the event that any vehicle held or stored by the direction of the City
Manager, upon which there are charges for storage or towing or both, shall
not be reclaimed, recovered or taken by the owner thereof, there shall be
deemed to be imposed upon such vehicle a possessory lien in the amount so
charged and unpaid and should the owner thereof fail to pay the same then
the possessory lien may be foreclosed in the manner provided for by law.
