Car in violation not being ticketed. Archived

1121 E Lincoln Hwy Coatesville, PA 19320, USA - Coatesville

This car has been sitting, unmoved, for at least the last week and a half and has never been ticketed for being on the wrong side of the street on street cleaning days. I have watched the sweeper go around this car 3 times with no tickets being issued. The attached photo clearly shows the path the sweeper had to take around the car this morning. There were also 3 cars at the end of 10th Street toward Lincoln Hwy which had to be driven around and were not ticketed. Why are cars not being ticketed for this offense?

  9/25/11 - we were notified by city police on Thursday (9/22/11) that they had located the owner of the vehicle and that she assured them the car was to be towed on Saturday (9/25/11) as it broken down and unable to be driven.
  
  It is now Sunday morning, it is still there and the street sweeper cleaned around it again. By 8A this morning a second ticket for $15 was left on the windshield next to the $15 ticket that was left on the car last Sunday.
  
  The police know the car is broken down and cannot be moved on its own; they also know the owner of the vehicle. The car has been in the same prohibited spot for just under a month and so far 2 tickets totaling $30 have been issued.
  
  THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO INCENTIVE FOR ANY CITY RESIDENTS TO ABIDE BY THE LAW WHEN IT'S CLEAR THAT THE LAWS ARE NOT ENFORCED. IT DOESN'T GIVE ME A LOT OF FAITH.

  I agree! I have been following this case through you. This is showing the inability of the police to be proactive. We have a huge problem here. If it is up to us, that's a crying shame. The city could pay another officer with all the money they make in parking violations! Get tough Coatesville!

  WONDER OF WONDERS!!!!!! The car was finally towed around 3P this afternoon. I don't know if it was the owner or the police that towed it - doesn't matter. It's gone.

Speed Limit Signs Open

S 4th Ave Coatesville, PA - Coatesville

There are no speed limit signs on South 4th Ave from Oak St to Rt. 30. Could this be the reason cars and now dirt bikes speed up & down S 4th Ave like they are on a raceway? I think the City needs to put up 25mph signs for the safety of the residents, the children, our homes and cars.

  I wish you luck! I am trying to get the one way signs put back up on 3rd. & Lumber. I made my own handwritten sign today, a elderly person came out of the physical therapy office and looked in the direction that traffic was supposed to be coming from but not the other direction and almost got clobbered by a car coming down the wrong way on lumber st. Hopefully streets dept. will act on this soon. (yes I called).
  Anyone that sees a knocked down street sign PLEASE put it to the side where it will be safe until the streets dept. can get to it and call them. Someone said they saw a guy put one of the knocked down one way signs that I am talking about on his truck for scrap metal! Not a good thing.

  Issues like this were up for discussion last night at city council. If there are no signs, the speed limit is 35 mph. If the street has double yellow lines, it belongs to the state. I.e. 8th ave. If you want signs, the best thing to do is address council at their next regular meeting during non-agenda items. It doesn't look like these are being checked anymore. You can go to HTTP://www.coatesville.org to find the schedule. You can also contact council directly through the "contact council" tab. Good luck!

- Well hopefully the discussion results in some action to resolve the issue. Get real, do you think any of the idiots speeding up & down S 4th Ave assume the speed limit is 35mph? No, you have to put up signs that are visible. Maybe signs aren't being checked any more, but I did my part by calling to the City's attention. Now they know about it, it's up to them to resolve it, but don't assume people know the speed limit when it's not posted. Fix it, Git-R-Done & move on to the next issue please.

Concrete Demo Pile Archived

1102 Olive St. Coatesville, PA - Coatesville

Approximately four years ago, an old sidewalk was torn up and replaced between the corner house on 11th & Olive and 1104 Olive St. The debris left over from the old sidewalk was piled up in the back yard. It has been reported to the city, the manager, and the owner (who lives in Kennett Square). Nothing has been done about it, going on half a decade now.

4' High Brush Pile Archived

1114 Olive St. Coatesville, PA - Coatesville

A brush pile that is over a year old is only getting larger and more intrusive on Juniper Alley. It is attracting unwanted vermin that homeowners are having to pay to have removed from their residences.
