As temperatures start to dip across East Central Minnesota, winter parking regulations will be enforced once again starting on Wednesday, Nov. 1. Here's a look at what that entails for some of the municipalities in the KBEK listening area:
Mora: A city ordinance prohibits vehicles parking on city streets between the hours of 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. The regulations go through March 31. Property owners and residents are also required to remove any snow and ice from public sidewalks adjacent to their property within 12 hours after a snowfall.
Braham: From Nov. 1 through April 1, no parking is permitted on city streets, city-owned parking lots, or public right of ways between 2 a.m. and 7 a.m.
Milaca: Vehicles are restricted from parking on public streets between Nov. 1 and April 1 from 1 a.m. and 6 a.m.
Cambridge: Winter parking is enforced from Nov. 1 through March 31, and parking is prohibited on any city street between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. Failure to comply will result in a $20 ticket and a vehicle tow.

North Branch: Residents and visitors cannot park on any city or public street within the city limits between 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. from Nov. 1 until April 1. After any snowstorm while city plows are out, residents and visitors cannot park on any city or public street after 7 a.m. until the street has been completely plowed and cleared of snow.
