Parking on Hillsdale is clearly marked with signs that say "residential parking permitted M-F, 8-5." However, cars are routinely parked on both sides of Hillsdale in the evenings and on weekends. Most of them are parked near the intersection of Hillsdale and E. 7th St., which creates a very narrow lane for traffic and is a hazardous situation for drivers. The parking regulations for this street need to be enforced.
Received a call today about a parking issue on 15th Street between Jackson and Madison. Caller says a new house has been built on that street and the homeowner parks a black truck in front of the home...reducing the narrow street to only one lane. He believes the homeowner is parking legally, but is concerned that it may be a safety issue during bad weather.
White truck parked along east side of Fairview Church. It's been there for a month - from the leaves around tires it doesn't look like it has moved. BUT, it's in a 2 hour zone. Please check it out.
Anonymous caller. Said a car is blocking the bike lane at 519 S. Washington. Said the car has been parked there for a couple of weeks,
There is a car parked in the bike lane on Washington Street.
Jackson Street between 6th and 7th. The white truck has been parked there since before Christmas - not moved. Now 2 more cars. None have permits.
Abandoned bicycle attached to tree
There is a black BMW 'parked' in the 800 Block of West 3rd st with expired plates that looks abandon. It has not moved in quite some time and perhaps should be removed. Thanks.
This has nothing to do with positive feedback. I received an overdue parking citation issued in 2011 to a license plate number. I was just issued this license plate # in May of 2013. The Dept of Motor Vehicles records will verify this. I want my name and this $40 due for an overdue parking citation removed from my name and records. Thank you. Go back to 2011 and find out who that license was issued to and seek payment from them.
You of course have parking problems galore near campus and older part of town. Why not institute policy of granting residential-area by-the-day parking permits for persons with valid handicapped designation? Say, for 8 am-4 in residential areas zoned restrictively? I was not legally able to park in and stroll my old neighborhood--tho' fortunately found the garage on Atwater. Had never expected to have pulmonary problems. Even area residents complain about campus parking. Can't you remove evening quotas for special events?
