A group of neighbors and an 86-year-old resident raised a parking complaint to the council about a no-parking sign placement that prevents curbside parking in front of the resident's home. The resident and his son explained the change would create hardship given the father's mobility challenges.

The chief of police reviewed traffic-engineer recommendations and said a sign placement slightly south of the house preserves sightlines on a curve and reduces the risk to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. The chief said he visited the site, spoke with residents and that the traffic engineer's recommendation was the basis for his decision. He agreed to place the sign temporarily for six months and to reevaluate after that period, meeting again with residents.

The chief also told the council that several vehicles parked on the street appeared to be commercial testing vehicles and not typical passenger cars; commercial vehicles are not permitted to park on the street under city rules. Council members suggested short-term loading/standing for the son's assistance in getting his father into the vehicle.

The decision to place the sign followed the traffic-engineer recommendation; it was not a formal council vote but an administrative enforcement decision by the police chief with a commitment to reassess in six months.
