Mazda suv, guest of 2400 Rogers, parked with tire/back right corner partially blocking alley since yesterday
Car is parked on sidewalk. No answer when I knock.
Why is parking allowed do close to the intersection at 16th & Lincoln. There is an old abandoned car there with a tarp on it that this person is using city property to store his vehicle on. Why does he get special treatment? This has been going on for years.
Dominoes delivery drivers park along the yellow curb in a lane of traffic, blocking traffic from pulling up to the stop sign. There is a no parking, fire lane sign too.
Day two
Our neighbor has a panel truck that he uses for his business (please see attached photo) that has not moved in months, and that is not an exaggeration. According to Bloomington City Code Section 15.32.070 this vehicle should have been tagged for removal years ago. I have just let it go hoping that he would get the damn thing running again but now he is renting uhauls and using this as storage. During our last big storm snow removal was greatly impeded because the plow had to navigate around the vehicle causing the snow bank to be in the middle of the street(see photo). What prompted me to submit this now is my wife and I witnessed a very close call between two vehicles passing each other from opposite directions on trash day. The car going south was forced to move closer to the middle of the street because of the truck and damn near clipped the north bound car. The streets here in Fritz Terrace are narrow to begin with but when you have a panel truck there constantly.....
There are multiple cars parked in front of 1397 W Adams Hill Circle that are never moved, some with multiple flat tires. The house is an eyesore with a rusted lawnmower in the side yard and appliances in the driveway often. I don't know which of these things can be cited but the cars in particular are an eyesore and nuisance.
731 Park Square has so many vehicles in their driveway that children walking home from school are forced to walk into the street. It is almost impossible to see around all their vehicles when attempting to back out of driveways around them due to all the vehicles obstructing the view. The vehicles in the driveway are sticking out past the curb.
