Description
Webster Auto Sales consistently blocks the sidewalk at the intersection of Prospect and Webster with vehicles that are for sale. Some times they are running, sometimes they are just parked for hours at a time. With the snow, there is absolutley no room to walk but even in the spring it is a tight squeeze to use the sidewalk. It is hazardous because it becomes necessary to walk into the street in order to cross over prospect street at the cross walk.

Must be a theme that Somerville Police allow this to happen. Consistently same problem at John's Auto Sales (181 Somerville Ave, 02143). Now that we have a snow clearing regulation that deems 42" the necessary width for snow removal, it would seem an easy measurement for year round. John's Auto Sales consistently blocks sidewalks in the EXACT same fashion being described here. Inexcusable.
Photo attached is an overnight example from this past summer.
