Description

On Sunday mornings/afternoons, cars are allowed to park in the far left lane despite posted 'No Parking Anytime' signage.

Presumably, this is allowed by the City during Church services but if that is the case why isn't signage updated to acknowledge the permitted Sun AM parking?

More importantly, why does the city allow this to happen? It makes crossing Temple Street dangerous due to limited visibility and the typical high rate of speed on that street. It also creates dangerous situations when drivers/passengers are entering/exiting their vehicles.

These vehicles should have to find parking in legal meter spots or garages.
