Impact analysis
The delay mainly saves drivers from potential parking tickets and towing fees for a few extra weeks, with little noticeable effect on city finances.
Residents who'd otherwise have to shuffle cars into driveways starting November 15.
Drivers who cross town lines may get confused by different start dates, and snowplow crews could be slowed if early snow arrives before the ban begins.
