It is found in the 1st Open <br />Record Period: Public Testimony (3-7-18 to 3-19-18) <br />Paul Conte’s Exhibit A, Attachment F, page 387, first paragraph. I am also expanding on recent neighbor <br />testimony on this same subject. <br />Mr. Gillespie says that on Spring Boulevard, “parking is restricted on both sides of the roadway. No-parking <br />signs are present, but intermittently spaced. <br />The spacing does not meet current no-parking sign spacing standards, but the presence of signage legally <br />establishes the restriction throughout it’s length.” <br />I want to say that I’m very glad that the “No-Parking" signs exist, but the street is still not safe. <br />I’d like to share some photos and a story about the type of thing that very commonly occurs on Spring <br />Boulevard. <br />The situation is dangerous even when there are “NO <br />Sometimes some neighborly “policing” is required. <br />Parking” signs. <br />Last Thursday, March 15 at 7:44AM I heard a commotion below my house on Spring Boulevard. <br />Evergreen Roofing had parked two work trucks along the curb just below the busy 5 way stop. One of them <br />had a long trailer hitched to it. <br />They were making quite a bit of noise, and looked like they were starting to set up to do some work. <br />I went outside, leaned over my fence and asked them nicely where they were working. They told me that it was <br />a home around the corner and up the hill on Madrona <br />(I later found out that it was 2421 Madrona). <br />I commented that they were quite a ways from their job site, that they were parked in a very dangerous spot, and <br />could they possibly find another spot to park ? <br />They told me that they had scouted the whole hill and because they had a trailer, this was the best spot for them <br />to park. I asked them how long the job would take <br />and they replied that it would probably take all of that day and part of another day. <br />It appeared that the trailer was used to cut and manufacture gutters and the second truck (facing down hill) <br />would be making numerous trips up and down the hill <br />delivering the finished pieces to the site. <br />I again told them that they were parked in a very dangerous spot, and as a matter of fact, they were parked right <br />“NO Parking” sign. <br />in front of a <br />1 <br /> <br />
