Salem Institutes New Snow Emergency Parking Policy
The city of Salem is changing its snow emergency parking policy for local garages.
In an effort to simplify parking in city garages during snow emergencies, the Salem Mayor's Office announced Monday that the city will be changing its parking rate during emergencies to a flat fee of $5 for any period of time up to 24 hours.
According to the release, the change is effective immediately and does not apply to Saturday's snow emergency.
Vehicles parked in city garages during a snow emergency should be removed from the garage by the close of business on the day the snow emergency ends.
