Description

There is a large white "Carpet time" van with that parks nose in to the building line blocking the sidewalk rather than parallel to the street. It blocks pedestrian right of way and butts out just about 4 inches from the flow of traffic on this busy street all day and all night. This situation has been going on for years and should not be allowed to continue.

This sounds like a traffic safety issue in terms of visibility / obstruction...

the street signs clearly state "No angle Parking" But cars still line up and park "nose in" across the sidewalk.

These 2 white vans continue to be parked across the sidewalk at the NE corner of intersection of S. 10th and Washington Avenue. People with carriages or disabled are restricted while squeezing by on the sidewalk.
Parking nose into the building thereby limiting visibility on car travel lanes of the upcoming pedestrian crosswalk and blocking the pedestrian sidewalk should NOT be allowed to continue . These white vans are constant eyesores. CORRECT THIS, PLEASE
