The General Ordinance of the Town of Houlton (Section 14-520) reads “No person shall park a vehicle on any street in Houlton during the period beginning November 1, and ending March 31.”
The Houlton Police Department will be strongly enforcing the parking ban between the hours of 1 a.m. through 6 a.m., during the early morning hours.
