But on Sundays the residency shouldn't even apply!!
I was wondering if a No Parking sign could be put up on Somerville Ave near Porter where there's currently some construction going on- there is a corner where two cars can fit near Beacon St. I received a 20ft and later a Bus Stop violation here but I see people parking here all the time with no tickets; I had been parking here for several months with no problem, sometimes even overnight.
I had an appeal session last week and I found the guy to be extremely rude- he did not even look at the pictures i brought and kept talking over me in a very demeaning manner, he wasn't listening to me whatsoever. he made it seem as if i was extracting a great deal of effort for him to at the very least take off the late penalty fees when I complained that I had sent in a written contestation which I never received a response from- why make us bother to write out a complaint if nobody is reviewing them? At least in Cambridge you can fill out a form online and they send you a denial letter (two tickets in less than an hour at an expired meter, argh).
I had to ask him three times to clarify for me how far away you had to be from a Bus Stop (I guesstimate I was about 20ft) and he finally replied from the sign to the next intersection unless there are signs stating otherwise. He spat at me that this is "common sense," but I would still appreciate a sign at this location as it's obviously not clear to all of us :(
