There will be a winter parking ban for all streets and parking lots in Camden, except for the Public Safety lot on Washington Street, from 1 a.m. Thursday morning, February 23, to 6 a.m., Saturday, February 25. 

“We understand that the parking ban length and it is being required during the daytime is less than ideal, but plow crews must stay ahead of the conditions this anticipated storm will bring,” said Camden Police Chief Randy Gagne, in a news release. “Those who need street parking for short durations like store or pharmacy visits will not be subject to ticketing. We just ask that these are short-duration parking situations.”

On Friday night he removal of accumulated snow and ice may also be necessary to free up downtown parking and clear important drainage that prevents flooding and icing.

“The Camden Public Works crew appreciates your assistance in this matter, so they can safely and efficiently get our streets, parking spaces, and drains cleared,” said Gagne. “If the storm is shorter in duration, we will lift the parking ban early.”
