Ms.Lexcen further stated that it would <br /> be better if the City did not post Jeffrey Drive as she talked to the <br /> people on her street and they have a wait and see attitude to see if <br /> the parking restrictions on Edgewood and Greenfield cause the problem <br /> to move to Jeffrey Drive. Ms. Lexcen further suggested that resident <br /> could be given large cards to put in the vehicles window and to give <br /> friends and relatives that stated, "Residential Parking Only Permit". <br /> Ms. Lexcen also stated that the problem is that Robert's needs an <br /> overflow lot for parking. Ms. Lexcen further stated that the <br /> establishment has become popular because it has good bands and draws <br /> persons from as far away as the southern suburbs.
