Parking bans in Meriden and Wallingford still in effect

This was posted online on the Record Journal website

Police in Meriden and Wallingford said early Monday parking bans in both municipalities are still in effect until further notice.

Public Works crews in both communities worked over the weekend to widen streets and clear snow in advance of a storm predicted to hit Tuesday into Wednesday.

Both municipalities have issued dozens of parking violation tickets as the snow began to pile up from several storms earlier in the month. Residents risk a ticket and having their vehicles towed at their own expense if they park on the street with the bans in place.
