Description
I was issued a parking citation on 5/17 at 1:06 am by officer P.B. My problem with this ticket that was for being in a area scheduled for street sweeping is that the street was not swept. I went back to the location the next morning and the gutters were still littered with teas and the familiar dark pavement that is left behind for a few days after being swept was not there. Seems really shady to issue a ticket for something that never happened. Even in my neighborhood, Santa Fe I haven't seen a street sweeper on the scheduled days in months. We have enough thieves in our city. We don't need he city itself to steal from its residents. Meanwhile our mayor drives around in a Lexus SUV paid for by the city.
