The Town of Sturbridge has a winter parking ban on public ways that is in effect from November 15th through April 1st during winter storms. The parking ban goes into effect from the onset of a snow storm until such time that all streets have been cleared. It is also prohibited to deposit or plow snow into a public way. |

Our town bylaws read as follows:
6.71 The Town of Sturbridge, acting through its Board of Selectmen or Town Administrator, shall have the authority to implement and enforce a community wide parking ban on public ways located within the Town as said Board or Town Administrator may deem necessary, for the purpose of facilitating travel on or over said public ways and the removal of snow and ice thereon, subject to the following provision.
6.72 The Board of Selectmen and/or Town Administrator may implement such a parking ban on a per storm or seasonal basis, provided, however, that the implementing of such a parking ban shall be limited to the period between the dates of November 15 through April 1 of the ensuing year.
I would ask all residents to take these regulations seriously so as the Town officials can do their jobs of keeping the streets of Sturbridge clear and safe.
Leon A. Gaumond Jr.
Town Administrator
