Parking Warning on Russell St.

[dashford.livejournal.com]

The fire hydrant on Russell St. near the Elm St. intersection has an OUT OF SERVICE notice on it.  (It's a non-removable sign, not a tag.)  Despite this, you should *not* park there -- they do issue $100 tickets for it.  Believe me.

I suppose the argument is that the hydrant could be repaired at some point and then a parked car would be in violation, but I'm still pretty ticked off about it.  I'll file an appeal and hope to get a reduced fine but I'm not optimistic.
