Please remember to clear your sidewalk – it’s the law.
Thanks, and have a good day.

City Hall with a snowstorm update and an important announcement about a city-wide parking ban. Por favor espere para escuchar este mensaje en español.
The City of New Haven is expected to be impacted by a major winter storm beginning late this evening and lasting through tomorrow. Current forecasts are for 12-16 inches of snow and wind gusts in excess of 50 MPH. Please do not leave your home during the storm unless absolutely necessary – these conditions are dangerous.
Public Works crews will have 50 vehicles out clearing snow 24 hours a day. I know it can be frustrating if your road hasn’t been plowed. Please be patient – our team will be working as hard as we can to clear snow as quickly as possible.
Additionally, there will be a city-wide parking ban beginning at 10 PM tonight. That means downtown and along posted snow emergency routes there is no parking on either side of the street. Additionally, there is no parking allowed on the odd-numbered side of all other streets in the city. Don’t be the odd one out. Again, there is no parking on the odd side of the street.
Transportation Traffic, and Parking will be ticketing and towing beginning at 10 PM tonight.
If you need somewhere to park there are options. (1) Many New Haven Public School lots will be available. If you park in Public School lots, please only park where snow-parking signs indicate. (2) The New Haven Parking Authority lots and garages will be open for $3 per day. (3) Yale is opening a number of lots throughout the city. You can find a list of lots on the city’s website: https://tinyurl.com/2p9bccwm.
Please take some commonsense steps to be sure that you’re ready for the storm. Charge your cell phone and have fresh flashlight batteries. Power outages are a real possibility.
Finally, please clear your sidewalk when the storm passes – this is required by law. The City will be doing enforcement.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation. Please be safe.
Hola a todos, soy el alcalde Justin Elicker con una actualización sobre tormentas de nieve y un anuncio importante sobre la prohibición de estacionamiento en toda la ciudad.
Se espera que la ciudad de New Haven sea afectada por una gran tormenta de invierno que comenzará esta noche y durará hasta mañana. Los pronósticos actuales son de 12 a 16 pulgadas de nieve y ráfagas de viento de más de 50 MPH. No salga de su casa durante la tormenta a menos que sea absolutamente necesario; estas condiciones son peligrosas.
El personal de Obras Públicas tendrá 50 vehículos limpiando la nieve las 24 horas del día. Sé que puede ser frustrante si su camino no ha sido limpiado. Tenga paciencia: nuestro equipo trabajará tan duro como sea posible para limpiar la nieve lo más rápido posible.
Además, habrá una prohibición de estacionamiento en toda la ciudad a partir de las 10 de la tarde hoy. Eso significa que en el centro de la ciudad y a lo largo de las rutas de emergencia de nieve no se puede estacionar en ambos lados de la calle. Además, no se permite estacionar en el lado impar de todas las demás calles de la ciudad.
El departamento de Transporte, Tráfico y Estacionamiento pondrán multas y remolcarán a carros a partir de las 10 de esta noche.
Si necesita un lugar para estacionar, hay opciones. (1) Muchos estacionamientos de las Escuelas Públicas de New Haven estarán disponibles. Si estaciona en lotes de escuelas públicas, solo estacione donde indiquen las señales de estacionamiento en tormentas de nieve. (2) Los lotes y garajes de la Autoridad de Estacionamiento de New Haven estarán abiertos por $3 por día. (3) Yale está abriendo varios lotes en toda la ciudad. Puede encontrar una lista de lotes en el sitio web de la ciudad: https://tinyurl.com/2p9bccwm
Tome algunas medidas de sentido común para asegurarse de que está preparado para la tormenta. Por ejemplo, cargue su teléfono celular y tenga baterías de linterna nuevas. Visto que los cortes de luz son una posibilidad real.
Finalmente, quite la nieve de su acera cuando pase la tormenta; esto es requerido por ley. La Ciudad hará cumplir la ley.
Gracias por su paciencia y cooperación. Por favor, tenga cuidado

Sec. Cardona (left) and Rep. Courtney toured Thames River Magnet School along with Principal Jamie Giordano (right), Groton Public Schools Superintendent Susan Austin, and others.
I had the opportunity to host U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona—a former Connecticut educator—in Groton so he could see firsthand how our local schools are taking full advantage of federal support to create K-12 programs that are nationally recognized for connecting graduates to a growing eastern CT workforce. We started the morning at the Thames River Magnet School, which in 2021 was named a Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education. We toured its new facility, and the Secretary was like a fish in water back in the classroom, bonding with the kids and staff. The STEM focus is marine sciences, and even the youngest students were glued to the classwork.

| Secretary Cardona and Rep. Courtney toured the manufacturing program at Grasso Technical High School. Read more here from the Norwich Bulletin. |
In addition, Grasso Tech is the site for the "manufacturing pipeline" program that offers pre-apprenticeship training that today is recognized as a national model for successful job training. Electric Boat shipyard, and hundreds of other employers are snapping up pipeline graduates as fast as they come. The Secretary was impressed to see how Grasso Tech stays afternoons and evenings to train adults after the school population has left campus, and we both agreed that making school facilities available to job training will expand opportunities to fill job openings, and is a smart education and labor policy. At both schools, the U.S. Department of Education plays a major role in funding school budgets in communities like Groton. Federal support through Title One, special education funding, and Impact Aid for military host communities plays a big role in the student success we witnessed today. The American Rescue Plan has also come through with emergency funds for all school districts to help with COVID challenges.
I want thank all the students who welcomed us on today’s visit, as well as the teachers and staff who were in attendance safely keeping in-person education possible. Big thank you to Superintendents Susan Austin (Groton Public Schools) and Dr. Ellen Solek (CTEAC), Principals Jamie Giordano (Thames River Magnet School) and Patricia Feeney (Grasso Technical HS), and all their staff for hosting us today. My team and I are proud to support the great work of these outstanding educators.

Mayor Justin Elicker with a snowstorm update. Por favor espere para escuchar este mensaje en español.
Beginning late this evening, the City of New Haven is expecting between 4-6 inches of snow. In order to assist our Parks and Public Works crews as they clear streets, we will begin a parking ban downtown and on posted snow routes at midnight and it will last through 3 PM tomorrow. Transportation, Traffic, and Parking will begin enforcement at midnight, so please avoid parking in designated and posted areas or you will be ticketed and towed.
Additionally, New Haven Public Schools will be closed tomorrow because of the snow.
The roads are expected to be hazardous tomorrow, especially in the morning. Please avoid driving if you can. If you must drive, use extreme caution and give yourself extra time. Enjoy the snow!
