This is day three of the yellow house on Lincoln street between 2nd and University has been parking cars along the alley. I cant leave the parking spot behind my house because of this issue.
Swain is no parking on both sides of the street between 3rd street and Atwater. And it is marked with 'No Parking Any Time' signs in several spots. There is one spot that people always park. Sometimes even going the wrong way. This spot is next to the Ami restaurant parking lot. This is especially dangerous when delivery trucks are parked on the other side of Swain delivering to Mother Bears. I've attached a photo to show cars parking in this spot. There is a sign in front of these cars, and another behind them. Where they are parked is a curb that has the entrance to the Ami parking lot to the front of them and to the back of them. They think since there is no sign on this part of the curb that they can park there. I would like to see a sign posted in this part of the curb. Having s sign posted in this part of the curb would eliminate most if not all of this parking.
This car has been parked in the Lincoln street bike lane for most of the summer at this point.
Scooter partially blocking sidewalk. I tried to do this, including a picture, (it’s next to a no parking sign.), but the app doesn’t work.
The new tenants at this address continue to park on the wrong side of Ballantine, impeding traffic (especially when people are legally parked on the correct side of the street).
Several cars without parking permits are consistently parking in Neighborhood Zone 2 permit-only spaces. I paid for a Zone 2 parking permit and I cannot find a parking spot on Swain Ave. (where I live) because they are almost all filled with non-permitted vehicles. I'd like to request stricter enforcement of parking laws in Zone 2.

There have been 2 cars parked in the alley for over 24 hours and despite trying to make contact with those who live in 412 S Lincoln St, they have not moved their cars from the road. It is blocking my parking spot and access to my backyard. I have visitors coming who will get tickets if they do not move their vehicles from the road so I can access my parking. Additionally, there is a lot of through traffic in that alley so it may be a safety concern as well.
Three cars have been parked in the alley for several days now. I need to use that alley to access my parking spot on the side of my house. There is usually frequent traffic through that alley so I am sure it is a safety concern too.
