Isn't that why he resigned as police chief and moved back to California?

Thank you janesvillean. I was just curious. I rented from a couple on Jerome Street (by the plant) over 10 years ago and they would not let me park in the driveway so I got a ticket. I should have deducted it from my rent, huh? JMO

justme46, it's a combination of the city only having lots downtown, and downtown being the only part of the city where there are a lot of residents who lack off-street parking.

It is nice we have parking for snow emergencies, but what if you live on the southside or the northside of town? How do you get home? I have always wondered this. I park in my garage, but I know I have lived places without driveways. Again, how do you get home? Can someone explain this?

I for one, appreciate the efforts of the men and women working for our Public Works and Police and Fire Departments. I think they generally do an excellent job.
