It’s important to know your respective snow ordinances whenever snow hits the ground in Dallas County. 

For Perry residents, no vehicles should be parked on any public street, alley or City-owned off-street parking area when there is at least one-half inch of accumulated snow until the snow has been removed and the streets are fully open and snow has stopped falling. 

For Adel residents, the snow ordinance/snow parking-ban goes into effect at the beginning of the snow event and continues for a period of 24-hours after the snowfall has ceased. If your vehicle is not moved during the snow parking-ban it can be towed at the owner’s expense and could incur a $25 violation penalty.
