For several days now, a burgundy Pontiac van has been parked going the wrong way in front of 837 W 6th Street. It's at the corner of 6th and Waldron. The van will be easy to spot because it has a Papa John's delivery sign on the top.
The two cars are parking with a yellow painted curb going to the stop sign. This is at 911 N. Illinois St. Bloomington, In. 47404 This is an ongoing issue. Parking is to be only on the left side. The curb is painted yellow.
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.
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.
Blue Volkswagen frequently on walk
Received a complaint from a citizen that people are parking diagonally in the parallel spaces on Dunn Street at the SE corner of Dunn and 15th. There are three parallel parking spaces provided on this East side of Dunn Street. People are angle parking here to park more vehicles. This makes it difficult to turn from 15th onto Dunn as the rear end of the vehicles are in the Northbound travel lane.
Basement level, personal truck vehicle with FT pass parking in city vehicle/fleet reserved 24 hour spot (spot #2 specifically).
Summerhouse street parking keep parking wrong way against traffic flow. Dangerous pull in and outs. South of e Indiana Bell CT. Parked along Morningside west side but facing north constantly.
Construction and deliveries blocking parts of 14-13th streets and Dunn. In one instance a semi trailer was blocking Dunn and there was just one guy with no sign *kinda* directing traffic.
