I also want to point out that I called the Parking Authority and said that the truck was parked illegally. I was sent a text a few minutes later says the matter has been handled. I went back out to check and the trucks were still there.

HOW WAS IT HANDLED? If you are driving down York (West to East) and you attempt to cross the intersection, you can not see the oncoming traffic.

I do not understand, how the Parking Authority comes to the decision of WHO to ticket. I got a ticket 2 days ago for being 2' in a loading zone. These trucks are parked in areas that say "DO NOT PARK"

The post office is immune from prosecution for illegal parking - that's why the parking authority can't do anything. Our local elected officials must spend political capital to bring pressure to bear on the Post Office to force them to stop breaking the local parking laws.

I keep this handy when I see the USPS misbehaving. It was posted in another ticket:

Fastest way to get change is to email executives at USPS headquarters with details and photos. Local workers will shape up for at least a few months. Copy local media and members of Congress for more effect.

Our council office is working on this. There was a conversation with the post master and his bosses regarding this issue. I have requested an update on any agreements that may have been made.

Why can't the USPS rent the parking spaces from the lot by Provident Bank? The lot is empty at night.

A comment i've made before in the numerous tickets on this dangerous and continuing threat to the health and safety of paulus hook families - why can't the city use paint and bollards and make it impossible for the usps trucks to park on these corners (washington/york and washington/grand)? i hope the city can take on this cheap and constructive suggestion. thanks.

Honestly, I think someone will need to be hit on this corner and die.

It's only in death that Jersey City takes matters seriously.

As per Councilman Solomon, The Post Office just changed leadership again, marking the 5th Post Master in my less than 20 months in office. Nonetheless, he is meeting with him next week to review the proposal which his team has developed on the city side and has been reviewed by the full post office. They are also working with the City engineering team on intersection improvements. Councilman Solomon thanks you for your patience as we share your frustrations and are working as hard as we can on moving a solution forward given the challenges we face.

Meeting is scheduled for Sept. 5th. An update will be provided after the meeting.

Councilman Solomon and his staff met with the Post Master today. He is new and is working with Councilman Solomon on a proposal for a permanent solution for post office vehicles. A follow up before the end of the year can be requested to determine where we are with the formal proposal for a solution.
