Zone B is the subject of the ban during the daytime on Friday, from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.
The last zone to be plowed is zone A, which will see snow clearing on Friday from 7 p.m. until 7 a.m. Saturday.
Anyone violating the winter parking ban faces a fine of $100 – or $50 if paid early. The residential parking ban will cost rule-breakers $150 per ticket, or $75 if paid in less than two weeks.
The city also warns residents their vehicles may be towed if they get in the way of snow removal efforts.
