Alternate Parking Laws
The Alternate Parking Ordinance states that vehicles must park on the odd side of the street on odd calendar days and the even numbered side of the street on even calendar days. The ordinance is strictly enforced by the Waukegan Police Department daily from 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 a.m.
The alternate parking ordinance has been in effect for more than thirty years to increase safety on city streets during winter weather and to better identify abandoned vehicles year round. Closely monitoring on-street parking during snow storms allows public works crews to quickly and more efficiently remove snow to make streets drivable. The penalty for not complying with alternate parking is a $25 ticket.
All Night Parking
The Parking Ordinance includes specific information about all night parking in the City in Section 21-119. This section includes the following:
(c) No person shall park any vehicle between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. of any day within the municipal limits unless such vehicle bears a current city sticker or unless the city police department is given prior notification of circumstances necessitating the parking of a vehicle without a city sticker. The police department shall then have discretion to allow the parking of vehicles on a day-to-day basis
