Hanson COUNCIL Beverly Scalze Bill Blesener Rick Collova Jim LaValle ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson Lately, we have had an increase in the complaints about parking on Sylvan Street north of County Road C. Last fall, no parking was established on the east side due to the amount of vehicles that were parked on the street from the townhouses and apartments. They were blocking mailboxes, and parking on both sides of the street made maintenance of that road virtually impossible. At this time, our options are limited as to what we can do to eliminate the complaints which we are now receiving. The main complaint is that cars are being parked on the west side of Sylvan Street for extremely long lengths of time. A couple of options that we have are to make Sylvan Street no parking on both sides allowing limited permitted use when people have visitors, or we can post no parking midnight to 6:00 a.m. or 2:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. which would ensure that the vehicles are in running condition and would be removed from the street every night. If they are not in running condition, they would then be tagged and towed. If a resident is in need of parking on the street over night, we can issue a parking permit for overnight parking one night at a time. At this time, my recommendation is to restrict the night time parking on Sylvan Street as that is the time when we have most of our problems. I would urge a parking ban from midnight to 6:00 a.m. and allow overnight parking with a permit only. Page 69
