Bluffton Public Works Dept. takes pride in providing our residents with safe streets even in the most trying of winter conditions. It is our goal to be prepared and in front of all snow events. The Department has well-trained, experienced employees that understand the importance of Public Safety for both our residents and emergency vehicles. Please note the following to Help Us Help You!

1. First and foremost, pull your cars in your driveway. When 2” or more of snow is on the ground or expected to fall, pull your cars in the driveway.

  • If a Snow Emergency has been declared, and you must park on the street, the Snow Emergency Parking Rules will be in effect. Our Police Dept. much prefers compliance over enforcement, but please understand we will enforce the law.
  • Parking during a Snow Emergency:
    • On even-numbered calendar days, park on the side of the street that has even-numbered building addresses and
    • On odd-numbered calendar days, park on the side of the street with odd-numbered building addresses
  • All vehicles parked in Village owned parking lots shall be moved at 24 hour intervals until snow is cleaned up. The Police Department may cause any vehicle to be towed that is not in compliance at the owner’s expense.
