Description
I am not sure I have this in the right category. There is a commercial vehicle ( one used in a business). Extended cab with Commercial Trailer that stays parked after hours and weekends in the 8th St side that borders the apartment complex on 800. When cars park legally on the right side it creates such a hazardous condition. One cannot see around the truck to see if anything coming out of alley and also barely able to keep from sideswiping cars trying to come and go. Vehicle is too large to be parked here. I do not know if the owner of the vehicle lives in the neighborhood or not.

What are the codes for street parking in a neighborhood? Can a large commercial vehicle stay parked on a street continually even though they do not live in the neighborhood but just use the area to keep their vehicle?
These folks come and go with another vehicle the CWJ 418 White Ford F 150 to get this one when they use it. SO, this tells me they are just using the area and have probably come from another area where they were previously doing this same thing. This street is very busy where they are now parking across from the Abbey Nursing Home and beside N. Branch Library. I would think this would be a violation that they are taking up this space used by Library patrons as well as those visiting the Nursing Home. Additionally, there are ambulances that are loading and unloading right there and with this huge truck/trailer there is massive congestion.

Thank you for your SeeClickFix post dated October 24, 2014. Chief Holloway has asked me to respond directly to you regarding the commercial vehicle parked in the 800 block of 8th Street North. Community Service Officer Merritt responded to the area at various times on several occasions. Although he did not locate this particular vehicle, he did locate two abandoned vehicles in the same block. Both vehicles were tagged as abandoned and the owner provided 72 hours to move them. The vehicles were not moved and therefore towed as street storage. Community Service Officer Merritt will continue to monitor the area for this vehicle during his patrol time. In the meantime, I would encourage you to call the non-emergency line at 893-7780 to report this violation while it is occurring so that an officer can be dispatched to immediately resolve the issue. If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact Community Service Sergeant Borrelli at 892-5208. Thank you for bringing your concern to our attention.
Sincerely,
Luke C. Williams
