D.A.R.E


The New Glarus Police Department conducts the D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) program to Fifth Grade Students at the New Glarus Elementary School. This program teaches kids to resist drugs and violence and is conducted by a New Glarus Police Officer.  The D.A.R.E program has been proven to be an effective tool in combating the growing drug and violence problem in our communities.
 

 

Out of State/Moving Into State


Both drivers and vehicles licenses must be applied for as soon as you establish residency in Wisconsin; there is no grace period.

Vehicle registration applications and driver's manuals may be obtained at the New Glarus Police Department or at Wisconsin DOT office which is located at Ace Hardware, 105 - 7 1/2 Street in Monroe.  The phone number is (608) 325-3185.

 

Parking


Alternate-side Winter parking begins November 15, 2007 and ends March 31, 2008. This requires anyone parking a vehicle on a village street to park on the even side of the street on even days and on the odd side of the street on odd days, which is enforced between 1:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. This means you should park on the side of the street where houses have even
numbers on the even days and vice versa. Don't forget that the enforcement begins at 1:00 a.m., so park you vehicle for the next day, if parking before midnight. Also, January 31st is followed by February 1st, which are both odd days, so park accordingly.

If you live on a street with No Parking on one side, the alternate-side winter parking does not apply to that area. There are also areas in the village that are exempt from the winter parking ordinance, so if you have a question, call the New Glarus Police Department at 527-2145.

There are also restrictions on the parking of vehicles with a weight in excess of 12,000 pounds, length over 19 feet or height more than 8 feet from the roadway, including trailers, boat or snowmobile trailers, busses, campers, farm implements, or recreation vehicles.
