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.
Still blocked
Three Lime scooters blocking alley way and sidewalk access.
Very large RV with expired plates (June 2019) has been parked in front of 618 S. Lincoln for several weeks. It has been taking up a lot of space on what is a narrow roadway.
There is always a car parked here blocking the entrance to the Winslow rd sidepath. It’s clearly marked for no parking with yellow lines. It’s not obvious why they prefer to park on top of the yellow lines instead of parallel parking both cars on the North side of the street. They do seem to be making an effort to leave space for walkers to get through but never enough space for a bike pulling a trailer
truck parked on sidewalk (this app distorts the photos. I can email the actual photo)
There is a large white camper parked at 1201 S Madison. Has Cougar on back of it. Plate is 72462E from Indiana. It goes against city ordinance. Here is that ordinance. “15.32.070 - Certain vehicles—Two-hour limit.

This prohibition shall not apply to pick-up type campers. Any violation of this section is a class C violation and subject to the penalty listed in Section 15.64.010(c).”
North bound Madison has no parking sign as you approach stop sign for Dodds. Cars are regularly parked halfway onto the street making the intersection dangerous.
