The top part of my earlier post was somehow truncated, so I am re-posting the missing top part of it here so that it hopefully makes more sense...

To the esteemed Commissioner Asseff: this problem also occurs numerous times per day in the 300 block of Elm street on Hollywood beach; with vehicles parked off the road (in a POSTED empty "green area"), to even completely on the road without flashers on and with no occupants in the vehicles nor any persons around that might appear to be drivers of the vehicles. Also, vehicles park and "stop and stand" -- usually occupied, but not always -- all along Surf Road in "old north beach" (a narrow one-way road) of Hollywood beach like it is a scenic vista turnoff, with the vehicles' engines running and with prevailing ocean winds blowing the foul exhaust into nearby residences.

Thank you for your e-mail advising of your concerns.

Your e-mail was forwarded to the City's Department of Community Development & Code Compliance for their investigation and response, and Director Clay Milan advised the following:

"The Area Code Officer conducted a sweep of the two streets on February 18th which resulted in most of the vehicles being moved. Additional follow up is planned for this week with the assistance of Police NTL."

If you have additional code related concerns, Mr. Milan requested that you contact his office directly via telephone #(954)921-3061. Thank you again for your e-mail.

Dear Jim c/o replies@seeclickfix.com,

Thank you for your e-mail advising of your concerns. Your e-mail was forwarded to the City's Department of Community Development & Code Compliance for their investigation and response, as well as to Police Chief Wagner's Office for their information.

Lead Code Compliance Supervisor Jim McGee advised the following: "Area Code Officer Alex Araya and myself drive through this area multiple times per day. We have not observed any vehicles blocking Surf Road or side streets. Officer Araya found a car partially blocking the street on Thursday. It belonged to a lifeguard. He did speak with the lifeguard who stated it was the only place they could park but he would try to find a better location. He will check back this week and if the vehicle still creates a problem, he will speak with the Ocean Rescue supervisor so the guard can be ferried to that location or assigned an ATV for transportation."

If you have additional code related concerns, Officer McGee requested that you contact his office directly via telephone #(954)921-3061 so that he could assist you.

Thank you again for your e-mail, and the opportunity to be of service.

Respectfully,

Cheryl Lahoud
Citizens Service Coordinator
