Why cant this be assigned to an officer on duty? Ofcourse Devlin isnt on duty again until Tuesday.
This should be a concern for the complete Tukwila Police Department.

There free, legal street parking 500 feet away. It's not like they're a group of unfortunate people with no where else to park.

I bet there is something illegal going on inside the premises. Kinda of stupid if there is with all the attention they're drawing to them. Is there any suspicion within the Police Department? Could be drug dealers or Gang members gathering for a little meeting, heh?

Its ridiculous that this is ongoing every day. It's my understanding that police have spoken to the owner but his customers must feel they can do whatever they want . My husband almost hit a car stopped in the road trying to go over the curb. I feel like our officers spend so much time at so center that the neighborhoods get forgotten.

Its not just the police I know this has been brought up to Code Enforcement, The Mayor and the Business Licenses Dept for Issue an License knowing there isn't enough parking for nay of the businesses their and they could all care less. The chief of Police told the Mayor this wasn't a problem but more and more as I go around Tukwila the sidewalks are being used as parking lots and only 2 officers I know are there to try to give tickets the rest of our officers are to good to stop and give parking tickets I was told by one he was a Patrol officer not a traffic officer. So what if you patrol and see a law being broke you take care of it don't just drive by it.
So tired of this city government not taking care of these problems.

Thank you for partnering with us to keep Tukwila a great place to live, work and visit!

Tukwila Police Department

Of course there weren't any parked there by the time this get to a actual person the cars are gone again.
Why isnt this put as a watch item for all officers on duty instead of just closing it with no action.
If it was a watch item for every officer on duty then this saftey hazard may be eliminated.

I agree that this should be a watch item for all officers. To those posting these problems please continue to post and be diligent. Let's keep trying to get this problem permanently fixed!

In going to bring it up at tibac. (Tukwila Blvd action committee) there is an office that attends all of the meetings, maybe I can get them to assign a seive by during peak hours. Does the city need to Jersey barriers up to prevent them getting onto the side walk? I would love to see planters in between the trees to prevent this !!!! Stop closing issues....investigate....that's what police are supposed to do! Or are we just waiting for a serious accident to happen !

Do you really believe the cops wanna keep hearing from you? You think they're listening? Don't bet on it. They just want your tax dollars while they sit around doing nothing but drinking coffee and eating donuts. Do you think they're really out there protecting the streets of Tukwila? Think again, man.

Thanks for being willing to bring up at the tibac!

We should all go park on the sidewalks in front of City Hall, the Mayor's house or next to a main road down in Southcenter and see how fast we get tickets? Maybe we can sue the City for ticketing us and not others!

Now there is a very astute observation! It might prove whether or not they're (Police) playing favorites.

Last friday they were on the sidewalk again ! There seemed to be avail parking in front of the building so not sure why they were on the sidewalk. I quess next time there is no parking at the library we can use the sidewalk.....

Maybe if we all call 911 when we see this happening it might help instead of report on this forum?

Calling 911 has been done same results its put on such a low priority and again saved for the traffic officers which TPD has 2 right now and those precious Patrol officers are to dignified to handle such a minor law.

The cars were parked there again Monday evening and I personally saw a TPD officer drive right by them do nothing. BTW they parked there again this evening even a line up of 3 cars waiting to get on the sidewalk.

They need a bigger Police Force. But that will probably never be cuz the Mayor has other plans for the budget. Like a big new City Hall(now being consructed) and 2 Fire Departments. The Mayor doesn't consider issues like this to be of any importance. It's much more important for him to have a nice plush office and cozy chair to relax in. The public doesn't matter.

I'm hoping the mayor will be at TIBAC tonight ....so I can ask him in person for a permanent solution to this issue. How does everyone see it but city staff.

Traffic checks during the day, and I sent the issue to Sgt. Rock the patrol coordinator. From reading the comments I have a suggestion, to call 911 when you see the vehicles. I check, respond to, reassign issues on See Click Fix in addition to my other duty assignments during my shift. By calling 911 each time you call an individual incident number is assigned to that call. You can request to be anonymous as well. If you are looking for hard data numbers to bring up to City Admin, the number of incident numbers assigned to illegal parking reports in the 13900 block of Tukwila International Blvd are publically available.

Thank you for partnering with us to keep Tukwila a great place to live, work and visit!

Tonight at Tibac I spoke w both the chief of police as well as council member kate kruller about this situation ( where 4 cars were parked on the sidewalk tonight) also chatted w a school bus driver who had to lock up his brakes to avoid and accident there. The bus driver is not allowed to use his phone while on the school bus , but he sees this happening everyday so 911 is not an option. I'm hoping we can find a workable fix for this problem .

I also reported it on city of tukwilas traffic calming site.

Thank you Diane for talking to people at Tibac and reporting on the traffic calming site.

Your welcome ! This whole thing is beginning to boarder on the ridiculous !

Beginning to it has done past that there were cars parked there again tonight.
These businesses and thier customers do not care about the law and it shows with thier actions. The city seems to enable this behavior.

The good news is I got a message saying they are reopening this issue after they closed it. I believe council gets reports from the traffic calming tool that's on the city's web site. So please report things you see in as many different venues as are available.

Why doesn't the city or Police Department put up a permanent and unmoveable barricade to block the illegal parking? They need to install a barricade that blocks these people from parking in the designated area and make sure that they can't remove the barricade.

The city and police department don't care enough about the whole area along TIB. Other business managers and owners feel the same way as well!

This was reported by some one else also . And I commented on it there with the municipal code about parking on the right of way ...

8 cars parked there tonight and 3 more trying to get on the sidewalk at 640 pm.

Of course they don't care. After buying that property from the foreign community, they don't want to step on any toes or break any egg shells. In other words the City doesn't want to do the "Right Thing".

Today there were 5 cars on the sidewalk when my husband went by and tib was stopped with a couple of near misses while cars were getting on and off the sidewalk ! There just
happened to be a cop at the taco wagon at the corner of 140th and tib so he doubled back to talk to the officer. The officer did not seem aware of the ongoing issue...he did take action by using his squad car to block traffic so they could get their cars off the sidewalk. One person got in the officers face shouting, arms flailing etc. I'm not sure it will have a lasting effect but it's at least some action.

Are the Police of Tukwila playing some kind of favorite game with these drivers? It sure looks like it! Does the City of Tukwila owe this group of drivers some kind of serious favor? The Police just keep on letting this problem slide. WHY? Other drivers can't do it, so what gives these people the right? Maybe favoritism?

Cars were on the sidewalk again tonight

Cars are on the sidewalk almost 70% of the time from approx 12 pm until they close at night seems to he around 10 pm.

It's a matter of turning the cheek and looking the other way. The city must owe these people something fiercely or otherwise it would have been settled by now. There's a connection between the two and it could be illegal. The national government is doing it, so why shouldn't they? They're above the law.

Problem is on going

Nothing is done and it appears nothing will ever be done about it...people do u turns and back out into the road but the city isnt willing to address it.

And they probably won't do anything becauseof being more concerned with their new jail and court house being constructed.The City Council just doesn't care anymore.

Face it! The Tukwila Police have been bought off with a bribe or money under the table. I guess you can buy anybody nowadays.

Last night on my way home from work around 3pm it's gotten to a whole new level of dangerous. They are still parked on the sidewalk near the little store but now also running across the street to the Sahara cafe !!!!!

Still happening !

Why is nothing ever done about this situation. I understand that times are hard right now , but this has been repeated over and over again since last year. Why don't you guys get off your tush and do something.

Its going to take a serious incident for someone to do something unfortunately. My wife and i unfortunately can't ride our bikes with our son through this stretch for this exact reason.

You have to call this in to the Police department , they are not looking at on-line report here for now.

*reporting

They aren't looking at anything right now or in the future! They're looking where the sun don't shine.. The city is beginning to look like a garbage heap. Who likes living in a pigs stye? Smells like one too.

So I guess the city will never do anything about this issue....its sad that something that has been reported by so many citizens goes unnoticed by our police and elected officials. The police drive by this all the time and ignore it. Maybe instead of officers enforcing parking we should hire a meter maid. Cheaper then an officer and a single task to focus on.

On going

At 930 tonight there was a TPD officer parked about 20 ft west of TIB on 139th but did nothing about the 4 cars parked on the sidewalk.
This is how unimportant it is for our TPD and our Tukwila official feel it is that they park there.
This isn't the first time I have seen one of our TPD drive right by these cars and do nothing.

I suggest you get in touch with the head of the city council. He may have more authority than the Mayor. Besides, I believe this is his district, he should be taking better care of it...

Oh I think everyone here has contacted everyone at city hall mayor included and the city council and nothing is ever done.

I got for starting a gofundme and putting a concrete block right on the sidewalk. Enough for walking and biking.

Still happening every day

Nothing gonna change its been going on for over 2 yrs that I know of been brought up to the city and city council still nothing.
I hate to say it but this city government is afraid to do anything to a certain group of people they might offend them.

Jose- That’s not true...look at all the businesses uplifted down TIB. I don’t think offending said people is what’s at stake here

I agree w jose ...the city has has many opportunities to fix this dangerous problem and stop the illegal parking but this business seems to get a pass on creating traffic danger and blocking the sidewalk so handicap people have to go into the street to get by. Council, mayor, police chief have all been made aware and its been reported on the city's traffic calming site, yet no action taken.....

I think the City owes something fierce to these people who are committing this infraction. Could be "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours situation." They probably owe these people something and are paying them back under the table by letting this illegal parking to continue. It's all Politics.

Those offenders you mention. better known in my world as "mano nero" or the black hand. Do you really think that Tukwila City is going to admit to associating with "THEM"?

The city has been told or paid to look the other direction. What else could it be?

Ongoing situation ...no action taken by city of tukwila

And there most likely won't be any action taken. I can't believe the amount of hypocrites that sit on the City Council and reside in the Police Department. You people should be ashamed of yourselves for letting this activities continue. Is everyone at City Hall out sick with this Covid Virus?

Still happens EVERY day !!!!!

You have to email the City , I believe they are not using this site for now because of Covid.

New business moved in from across the street (Sahara cafe) and they painted NoParking in front of the door. Everyone is still parking on the sidewalk everyday. Is the city EVER going to do something ????

Last week i saw 2 police cars at the stop sign on 139th and TIB on the west side waiting to go right and there were 7 cars on the sidewalk but do you think they would stop to do anything. Nope they looked left toward these cars a couple times and turned right did nothing.
I have and i think most this community has any faith in our officers controlling these situations.
I will say it again i was told by an officer i stopped and talked to about this and was told " i am a patrol officer not a traffic officer contact the traffic officer if you want something done.
I was told we only have 3 traffic officers in tukwila well to me every officer should be responsible to take care of these traffic situations. No wonder they even park on the sidewalk right across from the new justice center and nothing done. Even when the police drive right by the illegally parked car.

Try calling 911 and reporting the vehicles on the sidewalk. I have called 3 time's and 1 of the times an officer ticketed all vehicles parked there and the other times no officer showed up or if they did it was a long amount of time before they did show up.

I shouldnt have to call them when they see it they should do somethong not just drive by.

I was just posting that comment in general, we need to call and report to 911. Yes, I agree with you and I have even witnessed Tukwila PD parked at this location in the parking lot even and they ignored the fact that cars were parked on the sidewalk. Very crazy how the police here do hold people accountable for breaking the laws here.

Four on the sidewalktonight at 5;30. Apparently writing tickets a few weeks ago had no affect.

Is anything going to ever be done about this issue ?

I recommend contaction ADA and filling a complaint, maybe they will nudge the City to do the right thing for this problem area.

Still happening every day...

And still nothing is done about it....

Still unresolved. FINE THE BUSINESS OR TICKET THE CARS
