RACINE — The City of Racine has declared its second snow emergency this week, in effect 6 p.m. Friday to noon Saturday.
About 1-3 inches of snow is expected to accumulate Friday night, according to the National Weather Service.
Commissioner of Public Works John Rooney said he made the declaration in order to aid the city's snow removal operations.
During the snow emergency, parking will not be permitted on either side of the city's highways, arterial streets and collector streets.
For all other streets, alternate-side parking will be in effect. Vehicles parked in violation of the restrictions will be ticketed and subject to towing.
Alternate-side parking regulations will expire at noon Saturday. After the snow emergency ends, alternate-side winter parking regulations will resume from 2-6 a.m.
All City of Racine Department of Public Works drop-off sites will be closed this weekend to ensure adequate staffing for plowing operations, according to the city. This includes the Racine Transfer Station at 6300 S. 21st St. and the Pearl Street Facility.
