Snow emergency for Sturgis

With a forecast calling for more than four inches of snowfall, the city of Sturgis has declared a snow emergency.

The measure went into effect at 11 o’clock Tuesday night and will remain in place until routes are cleared between two successive street intersections.

The emergency means parking is prohibited on all city streets in order for plow trucks to safely and effectively remove snow accumulation.

The owners of vehicles parked on the streets while the snow emergency is in effect will be issued a $50 fine and be towed.
