Due to weather, Valparaiso City Hall and Parks Offices will be closed today, Wednesday, February 2, 2022.

Valparaiso City Services warns that steady, blowing snow and dangerous travel conditions are expected, beginning Jan 1 mid-day and continuing through Jan 2. Expect 4 to 8 inches of snow and northeast wind gusts up to 40 mph. Reminders:
* If you must travel, keep an extra flashlight, food, and water in your vehicle in case of an emergency.
* Per City ordinance, please remove vehicles from City streets when there is 2 or more inches of snow, to allow for snow removal efforts. Please park vehicles in garages, driveways or parking lots until streets are cleared.
* Per City ordinance, please do not push snow into the roads. The City plowing process inevitably results in some snow being pushed back into already cleared driveways and the City will not remove snow from driveway entrances.
* Main thoroughfares and emergency routes are cleared first and remain the focus during overnight hours. Side streets, neighborhoods, and cul-de-sacs are cleared once emergency routes are safe to travel.
* Keep an eye on neighbors, particularly seniors and those who may have difficulty clearing snow or accessing help.
