The snow emergency will continue, the Department of Public Works announced Tuesday, and the trash collection schedule will be altered. Due to the record snow fall from last week’s blizzard and Monday’s heavy snow, on-street parking will continue to be prohibited. Trash and recycling collection this week will be pushed back one day, so Tuesday pick up will be Wednesday, Wednesday will be Thursday, etc. The normal trash/recycling schedule will resume on Monday, Feb. 9.
