 suspended, except where those regulations are  
 normally in effect seven days a week. On all   
 other holidays, only Street Cleaning Rules     
 are suspended. All other regulations remain    
 in effect. Parking meter regulations will be   
 suspended on major legal holidays.

 Emergency Suspensions of Alternate Side        
 Parking Regulations                            
 Alternate Side Parking Regulations may be      
 changed from time to time because of snow      
 emergencies, inclement weather conditions or   
 other emergencies. In these circumstances,     
 the information is provided to the news        
 media. Call the New York City Call Center,     
 311, to obtain information on emergency        
 suspensions of the regulations.                
                                                
 Alternate Side Parking rules were suspended    
 on December 19-24, 2008, January 10, January   
 15-16, January 20-21, January 27-28, February  
 4 and March 2-4, 2009 to facilitate snow       
 removal.                                       
                                                
 Mayor Bloomberg signs legislation temporarily  
 suspending alternate side of the street        
 parking regulations during snowstorms.         
                                                
 Temporary Suspensions of Street Cleaning       
 Regulations                                    
 Street Cleaning Regulations (SCR) may be       
 suspended temporarily in parts of the City in  
 order to post new regulations. This program    
 is a cooperative Department of                 
 Transportation/Department of Sanitation        
 effort to change existing street cleaning      
 rules, as well as to replace missing or        
 damaged parking signage.                       
                                                
 When the Department of Sanitation makes a      
 determination to change street cleaning rules  
 in an affected area, the regulations are       
 suspended temporarily to allow the Department  
 of Transportation to post new signs            
 describing the new rules. This suspension      
 does not affect other parking rules which are  
 not Street Cleaning Regulations.               
                                                
 When the posting of new signage is completed,  
 the Department of Sanitation provides a        
 weeklong orientation period during which its   
 crews clean the streets according to the       
 newly posted schedule but do not issue         
 summonses. At the conclusion of the            
 orientation period, enforcement of the new     
 rules takes effect.
