Ever since this property was sold a year or two ago, the new absentee landlord has been "stuffing" it with tenants, creating unsightly parking issues, along with unsightly trash and recycling roll cart issues. If the Town is going to allow the stuffing of this building, why cannot this absentee landlord be required to create new parking behind it? (Otherwise, the next thing we'll see is the Town accommodating this abuse by permitting the tenants on-street parking permits, moving the additional parking onto Brookside, and serving only the landlord's interests.)
Hopefully, the Town will not enable this irresponsible landlord by permitting his tenants on street parking permits. What needs to be done is for additional parking to be created in the back of this building. There are legitimate questions about "stuffing" occurring with this building, and Town inspectors should investigate this.
Another option would be for the town to increase the costs of permits for street parking. The first permit for an address would be $50, the second $100, and so on.
In regard to increase the cost of parking permits, here's a couple ideas: 1) restrict permits to only vehicles with North Carolina tags, who've registered their cars in Orange County (should not OC be collecting taxes on this property?); and 2) why not jack up permits from $25/year to a level comparable to what's charged by the Town/UNC/Carolina Inn for in-town parking?
With increased usage of our streets for bikes, scooters, skateboards, it would make sense to have in place policies that diminish on-street parking in our neighborhood, while providing a much more appropriate Town income for on-street parking permits. (The recent death of a bicyclist on W. Franklin, due to a door from a parked car opening on him, should be a wake-up call.)
Except that these people are parking on their lawn precisely because they don't want to, or can't get a permit. This falls on the landlord and the town to monitor code violations.
Well, in regard to the property in question, it appears the landlord could create parking in the backyard if he wanted to. So, that could take care of this particular problem... (And, let's face it, landlords like these are not likely to be proactively monitoring their code violations, are they? Town's gotta handle it.)
