On Saturday 17 May at 7:11pm, there was a vehicle parked right in the street without lights flashing and with no occupant - supposition is that it was a delivery person who thinks the rules don't apply to them. This is a *very* common occurrence at this particular location. Seems like with the police station so close, delivery drivers would hesitate to block streets like they do. Is it possible to talk to the management of the establishment about this? Or could there be an officer stationed there once in a while handing out tickets? I imagine you could make a lot of money for your office slush fund, and just doing it a few times might result in a long-term fix.
There are currently three vehicles parked illegally in the alley. This area is not a private driveway and should remain clear.
Absolutely not an emergency, just wanted to start a paper trail in case it’s needed later. Multiple cars repeatedly park in front of my house, and have recently begun blocking the driveway. I left a note, so hopefully the incident will not be repeated, again, just wanted to make sure it’s on the record in case there is any further development. Thank you!
Not clear if this is the responsibility of 308 or 310, but there is a weedy tree on the south end of the property line between these two lots that has grown out a lot, so much so that it is hard to drive down the alley at this point, especially when there are tons of cars parked back there.
Rideshare drivers (Uber, Lyft, etc) regularly stop and park in the middle of the bike lane at this location while they load up passengers from the nearby rental units. Last evening, I explained to one of them that it was not a place to park, but she just smiled, cackled, and drove off. Is this even a violation, or can they just stop anywhere they please for as long as they like? If it is a violation, and since it's so close to the police station, it seems like there could easily be an officer out there handing out tickets to teach them a lesson. Maybe they eventually will get the message that they don't own the roads.

The business at 114 E 6th St consistently has the alley at the side of their business blocked with trash cans and boxes.
Cara parked on both sides of the street, where construction work is about to begin, this is a hazard for both pedestrian and vehicles going down through this street. Larger trucks will not be able to move through
