The city will be providing people looking to move their cars to higher ground with multiple options in four Town Center garages. Those options will be available starting Wednesday afternoon through Friday, but the city asks residents to avoid parking in reserved spots at the Town Center garages, since those are leased by residents, and towing will be enforced.
