Problem reported earlier (#202303). Was 'Resolved' with the justification that the vehicle is located in a driveway. A driveway seems to me the 'private property' referred to in the Municipal Code section below. The license plate is expired. Owner recently replaced the 1975 plate with a newer one, but it still is an expired plate (2016). Vehicle has been there for at least 30 years. No one in the street can remember seeing it ever been used. 15.04.020 (6), definition of an Abandoned Vehicle. A vehicle that is three or more model years old and mechanically inoperable, and is left on private property continuously in a location visible from public property for more than twenty days.
The problem is parking on the south side of East Maxwell Drive. Cars are either parking on the street or half on the street and half on the grass. The lack of signage is possibly causing the problem. The North side of Maxwell is clearly marked and with some zone parking. This south side becomes a problem with heavy traffic and the cars are parking on the street. So is it permissible or not? Thank you.
