Alternate side parking (street cleaning) regulations are suspended on Friday, July 4, for holiday observance.
Because July 4 is a major legal holiday, parking meter regulations are also suspended. On major legal holidays, stopping, standing, and parking are permitted, except in areas where stopping, standing, and parking rules are in effect seven days a week (for example, “No Standing Anytime”).
