If you were parked on a snow route this weekend, consider yourself lucky for getting a warning instead of a ticket. The ordinance that prohibits on-street parking in 16 neighborhoods across Des Moines is still pretty new, and police found there were a lot of complaints after the first snowstorm. So with all the visitors for Christmas and the city wanting people to be aware of the need to move cars more than they wanted the money from the tickets, the decision to write only warnings was made late last week. They wrote more than 500 tickets during the December 12th storm.
