Description

1). Between Barry St and Hilyer on East Howard Ave, cars are now parking on both sides of the street. This week, a school bus on Barry turning left onto E Howard had to move back and forth to not hit a car parked on the side of the street across from the train tracks. The parked SUV was lucky to not be hit.

2). Now that Amazza has opened, parking on that same side is blocking our fire hydrant. It is not parked and is camouflaged.

3). Tonight, there was a standstill in traffic because with cars parked on both sides, the street is impassible for 2-way traffic. I witnessed four cars having to back up.

This is untenable. Either make this street a one-way road or stop two-sided parking.

This is urgent. A fire being ignited in any one of these homes will be hard to get to under these conditions.

Thank you.
