Haverhill pre-treated streets, dispatching between 22 and 24 sander trucks, both city and private contractors. Methuen reports it will “fully enforce” its winter Parking Ban until at least 2 p.m. That means no vehicles are permitted to park on any public way to allow for snow removal and ticketing and towing may take place. Groveland has already announced a one-day delay for trash and recycling collection this week.
Plaistow Town Hall is closed Monday and Plaistow Police remind residents of the winter parking ban that went into effect at the start of last month. No overnight parking is allowed between from midnight to 7 a.m. Fines may run from $25 to $100 during snow plowing operations.
