Continuing a tradition that dates back to the 1990s, the city of River Falls will not be enforcing public parking meters from Saturday, Dec. 10, through Sunday, Jan. 1.

Parking meter usage is monitored weekdays by a police officer monitor Eve Cole.

Parking meter enforcement will resume Monday morning, Jan. 2.

The parking meter winter holiday abatement gives local shoppers a chance to park for free in the downtown area.

Police Chief Roger Leque reminds drivers that odd/even overnight parking restrictions are still being enforced over the holdays.

This is done to ensure efficient and safe snow plowing of city streets.
