Since the new parking law was adopted, some neighbors have expressed their concerns about street parking. Some of the concerns are that the street cleaner cannot clean properly, that there won't be enough spots on the street, that the street will be congested, limited parking etc. Helpful Information from a Police Website:
My Neighbor Keeps Parking His Car on the Street in Front of My House, Can You Do Something About It? Actually, no. Since Public Roadways are just that, public, no one has the right to reserve spaces in front of his or her house. However, homeowners like the convenience of being able to park in front of their own house, and families who have multiple automobiles should make arrangements to park the extra vehicles someplace other than in front of someone else's house, for example in their driveway. On the other hand, if you encounter a vehicle which is parking in front of your house for excessive periods of time without moving, you can call the police department and ask to have the vehicle checked out. (If you don't recognize the vehicle and it hasn't moved for a long time, it may be stolen.) If the vehicle remains in its parked position for more than 72 hours, it can be ticketed for violating the Town's 72-Hour Parking Ordinance. Of course, the best course of measure to take for this type of problem is to talk to your neighbor, and to try to work it out without involving the police.
