Westwood Hills Parking and Streets


Parking cars on curbs, sidewalks, or grass is prohibited.

All four wheels of vehicles must be on the pavement/street.

The City speed limit is 25 miles per hour on interior streets. We have many children living in the neighborhood. Please drive carefully and observe the speed limit.

Parking on City streets for a period of 24 hours following a two-inch or more accumulation of snow is prohibited. The parking ban takes effect two hours following the snow accumulation in order to allow the streets to be cleared.  Violators will be ticketed, and vehicles may be towed at the owner's expense.

Westwood Hills Public Places


Westwood Hills is fortunate to have a public space that we call “ The Green”.  The Green may be used as an area for quiet reflection, relaxation, contemplation, and wildlife observation and as a gathering place for city residents and guests for functions or events planned by, sponsored by or co-sponsored by the City or approved by the Governing Body of the City. This space is where we celebrate our Spring Egg Hunt, the 4th of July celebration, the Tree Lighting Ceremony, and other special community events. The space is open for public use between the hours of 7:00 AM and 11:00 PM and SMOKING IS NOT PERMITTED.

The community also shares 3 traffic islands and entranceways to our city which mark our unique and historic city.
