Description

These restauranteurs are nice hard-working people, but what they are doing is completely inappropriate.

From 9am-11am each morning, they bring in a pair of food carts a food truck, and 2-3 employee cars, -- all in front of their High Street business. Usually they don't pay for the parking.

If they were just loading up the carts from the restaurants that would be okay. But they aren't. They're using the City sidewalk and street as if it was private property, washing out the truck and carts into the street, (food particles everywhere), and clogging the sidewalk with at least a half-dozen oversized coolers, plus cleaning supplies, food, etc.

Is it legal to park a trailer in the Central Business District? And can one wash out a food truck into the City gutters? And why is no one enforcing meter parking, when the rest of us have to pay?

I hope the City or Town Green takes action before other people start doing the same. And nothing against the Rumbamba folks. They just need to be told to stop.
