With the beginning of the holiday season arriving, The Dalles Police Department will be actively enforcing its downtown parking ordinance. Police Chief Patrick Ashmore is reminding people that under the ordinance no one should park their vehicle on city streets in the central business zone of the downtown area while at their place of employment, business, or residence between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Complete copies of the ordinance are available at The Dalles Police Department.
