There is no countywide overnight parking ban. Ann Arbor has no blanket overnight prohibition, but during winter it may impose an on-street snow parking ban with 12 hours notice; disability plates or placards are exempt.
Washtenaw County does not set overnight parking rules on public streets; each municipality does. Ann Arbor allows normal overnight on-street parking outside of permit zones, but the key overnight restriction is the winter snow parking ban, which can begin in the evening (for example 8 p.m.) and stays in effect until residential plowing is complete. The city posts at least 12 hours notice. Exemptions apply: vehicles with disability plates or placards are exempt, and certain streets or blocks may be exempt because of a lack of driveways or inadequate parking alternatives.
Vehicles parked on the street during a snow ban may be ticketed and/or towed at the owner's expense; permit-zone violations are civil infractions.
