Tan SUV With TX Plates Storing Vehicle
Next To Sundance Park Off And On Through June - October, 2013
This tan SUV that is in these pics can be parked at the
owner's house right next door with a 2 car garage, 2 car
driveway, and 2 personal vehicle parking spaces in front of
their house. That is where this car belongs, per home
owner parking spaces allowed in our City. These are new
neighbors to our neighborhood. They do not know our
parking laws.
This kind of parking situation degrades our neighborhood
from being mentioned in "Money Magazine".
Code Enforcement can get long term neighbor's vehicles moved,
now how about tagging the new to the neighborhood blue car and
getting it moved. The many neighbors across the street
on Sycamore never park next to Sundance Park.
When Code Enforcement allows the tan SUV with the out of state
TX plates that just moved into our neighborhood in June, 2013
to stay, with favoritism, that same neighbor expects the same
treatment with all their cars. Obviously, when you allow
this to happen, it makes it harder for you to enforce the law
without favoritism.
"Last
night we heard from the owners of the
truck. It belongs to a couple who recently
moved to Louisville and who just purchased the
vehicle. The husband and wife are a little
distressed about why the selective enforcement
against them. Commander Kingston will
speak with them and convey our assurances that
this is all quite routine and innocent. "
This quote is from a May 25, 2012
e-mail to me from Bruce Goodman, Police
Chief. He knows the rules. He
applies them when he wants. He is a
bully. He does not do his job that he is
paid to do. He should be fired on the
spot. If he did his job correctly, the
first time he contacted the owners, he would not
be backed into a corner to save
face. Now, he will not do his job, just to
try to prove he is correct, when he is so very
wrong.
Here are 2 of our City laws
from our Municode.
Chapter
17.20 OFF-STREET
PARKING AND LOADING [1]
Sec. 17.20.160. Motor vehicle parking
limitations.
B. On
residential lots, no more than two motor vehicles may
be parked on any area of the lot other than within a
fully enclosed structure or on the paved driveway
which is intended for parking or access to the garage
or carport. A motor vehicle which is parked or stored
on an improved surface adjacent to a paved driveway,
or in a rear yard, a side yard, or a side yard
adjacent to the street shall be counted towards the
limit of two such vehicles. No more than one such
motor vehicle may be an inoperable vehicle as defined
in section 8.16.040.D.1 of this Code.
Sec.
17.20.100. - Parking spaces not to
be used for storage or advertising.
Required parking spaces shall be available for the parking of operable passenger automobiles of
residents, customers, patrons, and employees only, and
shall not be used for the storage of vehicles or materials
or for the parking of trucks used in conducting the business
or use, or for the purpose of advertising.(Code 1977, § 17.20.100; Ord. No. 715-1981, § 15)
This is from our Ethics Code
"Open Government & Ethics Pamphlet 2013
Other Ethics Rules of Interest
Page 7
It also prohibits acts of advantage or favoritism and, in that
regard, prohibits special considerations, use of employee time for
personal or private
reasons, and use of City vehicles or equipment, except in same
manner as available to any other person (or in manner that will
substantially benefit City)."

The owner of this tan SUV lives in the green house on the
corner with a 2 car garage, driveway, and parking space in
front. This is where this car belongs, not stored
next to Sundance Park.

This makes 8 days in a row this tan SUV with the TX plates
to store their vehicle next to Sundance Park, when they
have a 2 car garage, 2 car driveway, and 2 parking spaces
in front of their house on Sycamore. I was sick and
did not get a pic for August 2, 2013.
|

The folks who live across from Sundance Park have told me
that they
are tired of seeing a car from across from their house,
rather than the
park view. They are rude an inconsiderate neighbors,
due to Code
Enforcement allowing these TX vehicles to not park in
their driveway
like everybody else in the neighborhood. They park
one car in the
middle of their driveway and park the rest at Sundance
Park, which Code
Enforcement allows due to preferential treatment of
favoritism.
|

Still not parking their cars in their driveway. They
have had a reprieve long enough from moving into their
house in June. It is time they act like the rest of
the neighborhood and respect the home residential parking
laws. This is not their private parking lot.
|

They just continue to not park in their own
driveway. Sundance Park is not a parking lot for new
neighbors, who do not want to park in their own driveways,
per our house vehicle parking laws.
|

Code Enforcement continues to allow the tan SUV to park
next to Sundance Park (and the blue car is back, which
they cannot keep away). These homeowners have ample
parking on their own property, as this photo shows.
Favoritism by Code Enforcement. Everybody's else's
cars are in their own driveway and front area parking.
|

Still there, as Code Enforcement cannot do its job.
|

The tan SUV is back along with their dark car. Code
Enforcement cannot do its job. Shameful.

This tan SUV was parked early this morning, which means it
was parked here on 9-17, late at night.
