Case Resolved
When the public does not partner and compliance is so poor, it becomes impossible due to limited resources to tag and tow every vehicle in violation. Plows will be out replowing as vehicles move.

Just because you can’t ticket and tow all vehicles does not mean you should ticket and tow no vehicles. The public is not partnering because they have correctly called your bluff, knowing you won’t enforce the law!

Don't you love the yearly dance? Traffic Control says they can't ticket/tow because the streets aren't plowed. Public Works says they can't plow because there are cars there. And no matter how many people complain, the city does nothing until someone ends up hospitalized, and then they only address the location where that happened.

Isn't that the truth, Justin. Can't fight city hall, as the saying goes.

Every attempt is made to tag and tow vehicles parked in violation. With the high numbers of vehicles out of compliance it is impossible to tag and tow all vehicles with the resources at our disposal. We ask the public to obey the ordinance.

Not a single one of the cars blocking the bike lanes on Park has been ticketed. Send someone today and make some money!

When cars move we will plow

Either plow or ticket and tow vehicle. If unwilling to ticket please provide information of the individual unwilling to enforce so compliant can be filed.

IF ONLY THERE WERE SOMETHING YOU COULD DO ABOUT THIS, LIKE TICKET OR TOW EVEN ONE CAR. If you demonstrate that the law will be enforced, others will change their behavior!

Start calling people at the city, and force the people in charge to deal with uncomfortable conversations. I've filed a couple complaints with traffic control, and I've filed a complaint with public works and the bike/ped coordinator. We'll see where things go. More people complaining will help motivate, though.

Traffic is assessing streets that will be posted and widened. Until we see a list, we will push back where cars have moved.
