  Actually, I think people are pulling over there to buy dope too. It's a shame to see how bad that neighborhood is getting. I guess these people who own this store don't have a problem with this. (unlike the guy who owns Domino's/Daily mart next door who is a stand up guy). Ansonia PD needs to open their eyes and do something about this, otherwise they are pretty much saying its "ok" Same stuff going on in front of Xtra Mart on Wakelee Ave too. Nip this blatant open drug dealing in the bud, or God only knows what will become of Ansonia. Don't get me wrong I know this has always existed. But it seems now that people just don't care about it and turn the other cheek.

  You are requesting one to monitor parking and pedestrian activity in the subject north end sector of the city which by demographics shows a heavy rental community with many tied financially to special government entitlements. Going by the area by way of Oxford traffic was blocked on several occasions due to a few tricked-out, unregister Honda Accords that were conversing with one another. I had to sneak by and I accidently hit an opening driver’s side door on one of the Hondas when the driver was getting out. I pulled over to address the accident and told the driver we should get a report on this accident by the police. He said to me “No habla inglés “ (exact quote) but he did recognize the word POLICE and simply said “No, No, it ok, it ok u go it ok” Thus the possible reason such an individual cannot read a PARKING sign. I say unregistered because the car clearly had no sticker on the window and components on the car like it was built in a arcade. Fearing for my life as a crowd of Spanish speaking pedestrians gathered I was forced to turn into 4th street which was plagued with its own set of nightmares. It looks like the Olsen Drive plan backfired into this neighborhood just like a gas can was tipped over. The Gas and oil spread from one area but now spread like the Gulf-oil disaster to another. I believe the solution would involve Ansonia to address its quality of life issues in what appears to be a crumbling industrial base sector of town. With a neighborhood in that condition, the original homeowners either sell the home eventually turning to rental base properties attracting a population who can only afford what is available at a location matching appearance. Store owners discovering they can supply renters with services by posting a large sign on window “ WE ACCEPT WIC” is one way to retain the subject population due to Ansonia’s ability to support the population with special services & offices matching housing in the town. Thus the reason the ANSONIA HOUSING AUTHORITY Building looks like it is expanding. AHA Gives Ansonia a great looking corner stone to its Main Street entrance for potential home buyers or business tenants. Mayor Doyle during the early 60’s provided the golden route for the above subject and all the mayors thereafter could only go along with status quo.

  The sign is for 15 minute parking. I aggree that it is a very bad place to park. As for the drug deals, just look in the park behind Dominos and Dairy mart. I see the out selling as early as 6 o'clock in the morning. Never see any police.
