Caller reported 2 vehicles parked in grass at 700 N. Washington St.
Caller put $4 worth of quarters in meter #7116, on 4th St. across from Rainbow Bakery. Toyota Avalon is parked there. None of the coins registered in the meter, and caller does not want to get a parking ticket during her 3-hour meeting.
Caller stated cars are parking on both sides of street to where it is almost impossible to get through and at the stop sign to where you cannot see the sign.
Caller reported abandoned vehicle parked behind 2520 W 3rd St (off S Yancy Ln). Caller stated car has not moved in months, front driver window is missing, and is possibly being sleep in.
Complaint that internals from the parking meter were gone, and he was unable to insert any money. Meter is on the West side of Lincoln right before the alley that goes behind Esan Thai restaurant. Constituent believed parking meter number was 7652.
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.
Caller reported that meter #7673 is taking coins but not registering time.
Jennifer works at Wonderlab and said she's tried to report several times this week that the parking meters in front of Wonderlab (on 4th St. between Madison and College, minimally) have been blacked out. It looks to her like someone has taken a Sharpie and completely drawn over the meters' LED panels. She's received many questions from Wonderlab patrons about the meters and whether they're functioning.
Caller reports that a neighbor (likely living at 416 or 418 E. Cottage Grove) parks halfway in the alley, blocking access and other parking spots.
