city code has specific zonning rules reguarding vehicle sales,meraz motors IS doing that along with repair.they dont have nearly enough room to do both and the city should enforce one or both .the code 405-34 zonning code in the city of kingston specificly addresses the issue of all the overflow parking.ITS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN.they have WAYYYYYYY to many cars

The city could perhaps rent some of the space, or enlist Meraz to keep the place neat and clean. The city put up a Public Parking sign and do some painting of the barriers. As it is it does look rather abandoned.
Jennifer Fuentes has contacted Salzman on the problem.

the currant place where meraz does busisness isnt conforming to the code.they should have so much space per parked car because they sell cars too.the code speaks directly of that and thats why there are an abondance of cars parked there in the empty lot.he should either reduce the amount of cars so he can repair or stop selling cars all together.the space doesnt accomadate both.its too small.the city should get on it because when the winter comes arround and an emergency hits residents wont have a place to park when the plows come through the everyone gets towed because theres no parking

the parkin issue seems to continue to grow worse.there is a specific city code to address the problem at meraz motors.they are performing both repairs and sales at the same location.code 405-34 addresses storage from a sales location and not a repair location.both are unable to fit at that small corrner.there isnt enough room so meraz decides to put the overflow in the parking lot or out on the street on all sides creating a mess.i cant imagine how the city will have to deal with it in the winter if he is still allowed to continue to park his cars all over the place.ENFORCE THE CODE.or redo the entire code and allow everyone to run amuk.most people are anyways, because the city doest do anything about it untill someone complains anyway

the parking lot issue is not corrected.it even looks worse with dead tree accross the 1 entrance.athough the cars still remain.the other day because they have so many vehicles.their tow truck was parked over night with a car attached to it.there is also an ordence reguarding leaving commercial vehiles parked on city streets over night.why does the city and the planning office ignore the infractions

this issue has NOT been corrected and it seems to look even worse.somehow the user of the parking lot has dragged a very large tree trunk in an attempt to block the entrance to the parking lot but thats dangerous with people walking someone could fall.besides we are now into the winter and that lot will be needed for snow emergencys for local residence to utilize to get off the street when the emergency is declared.its not for local busisness to use for their own benifit,otherwise charge them for the parking.everyone else has to pay for parking up and down broadway,why not them

not at all ! not to mention the establishment that uses that lot has now become an eyesore to look at.with boarded up garage doors and vehicles parked where ever they feel like parking them.im sorry but i never thought Kingston would look like the SLUMS of NYC.thank you very much city of kingston for allowing this to happen
