Parking Permits

The two plows are still in the street restricting the right-of-way space. This is in followup to previous report of #176775.
I put in a uReport for a block street but I think that was a wrong category choice. That was #176656. Now I would like to know if people are able to buy permits for parking their plows on the street? Other: The person at this house has had two snow plows stored on the street since winter. The one plow is fairly wide and it is a hazard with the cars parked on the other side of the road.
There has been a silver Ford pickup truck parked on the west side of Fairview (between 12th and 13th) since last Monday. It has not moved and I have never seen this vehicle parked here in the past two years. Please investigate. Thank you.
Black Toyota FJ Cruiser is ONCE AGAIN parked in the shared alley, forcing drivers onto my lawn. Parked on an unimproved surface. License plate # SRD945
There has been a car parking on my street without a parking permit. This issue has been happening for months without the car being ticketed.
This vehicle routinely parks on the handicap ramp near the county/IU offices at the City Hall complex. The one next to it also didn't appear to have pertinent plates or a pass today. Are these not handicap spots? I noticed there was not a pole and placard like on other handicap accessible spots in the lot. But even if not handicap spots (though blue lines and paint markings should be removed) it still isn't even a spot at all but instead an access ramp.
We live on the street, and Bloomington recently put up permit parking
The owner of this car has a private parking space on the 500 block of West Smith Avenue. (Not sure of the house number. Sorry.) As you can see, he is not within the lines. Smith Ave. is a narrow street and said 'outside the lines' parking makes it difficult for UPS/USPS, emergency, and construction vehicles to pass through easily. I've spoken to him "in-person" to politely remind him to not park in the middle of the street. Would a ticket with a fine attached get his attention? I hope so. He doesn't seem to be moved to change his parking behavior by kind yet direct words from a concerned neighbor.
The changes to the Zone 4 parking permits for MCPL staff is a disgraceful lapse of judgement. The city MUST offer alternative parking options for hardworking public servants commuting to the downtown area. If it is too much work to discover a reasonable accommodation then you must relent and return the permits to the MCPL Human Resources department to disseminate amongst staff who need them. To serve the public we have to get to where we serve the public reliably. In the winter, in the rain, in record-breaking heat, and especially during the university's academic year when downtown parking is at its scarcest. To be treated like a problem that will scuttle away in the name of making a little more money on parking meters is folly compounded by blatant cruelty.
