  • Permits are void during slippery pavement conditions or inclement weather (e.g., fog, haze, heavy rain, freezing rain, and snow), creating hazardous driving conditions. 
  • Permits are also void during weekends and the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Civil Rights Day, Washington’s Birthday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.
  • If a holiday falls on a Sunday, the following Monday shall also be restricted as a holiday. 
  • If a holiday falls on a Saturday, the previous Friday shall be restricted as a holiday.
