For fuck’s sake, of course official vehicles are exempt. If they weren’t then a. There would be fewer parking spots available for everyone else and b. We’d have to hire more people to make up for the time they waste parking when their jobs take them to multiple high-traffic locations every day.

It’s the same if you work on an ambulance and you need to pee. You pull over in front of a fire hydrant and go to Starbucks, you don’t park a block away.

This vehicle is there every. Single day. All damn day. Illegally parked and partially blocking Orange St. The city has no problem illegally ticketing residents, but sees no issue with their own vehicles parked all day, every day illegally.

If this were some emergency vehicle, I'd be fine with it. It isn't. It's some lazy ass middle manager at the city who is too lazy to find a real fucking parking spot. So fuck that shit dude.

It’s not illegal if the are exempt.

Wait...did this get reported on February 10, then acknowledged on October 19 and only investigated six days after that? If someone reports an illegally parked car and you go looking for it eight months later the chances are decent you're not going to find it.

I stopped using See Click Fix a long time ago because I found the interface too clumsy and frustrating. But I don't remember it being this futile.

What are the chances that new haven lost this vehicle?

I’ve been yelled at for parking a cop car in areas marked no parking and I’ve also been yelled at for “taking up” marked spots in a cruiser.

Considering that parking is at a premium, especially downtown, I personally feel it’s better that city cars don’t take actual spots as long as they aren’t blocking traffic, crosswalks, etc.

Exactly.

Turns out nobody cares what you’d be fine with.

Just wait till you find out about Yale vehicles and city parking tickets...

Opinions are like assholes... Looks like you are one!

There is no exemption for parking in areas that are clearly marked no parking. This isn't the case of a vehicle being in a legal spot but not paying the meter, etc. This is a case of a car that parks EVERY SINGLE FUCKING WEEKDAY illegally, directly in front of NO PARKING SIGNS, in an area with clearly marked lines on the road telling people NOT to park there. They then end up blocking part of the lane of travel since they aren't in any spot at all!

Show me an exemption in New Haven ordinances or state statute for this shit.

So if you were that person, and you were granted special parking privileges, you’d take one for the team? Uh huh. 🙄

“Maybe someday I, too, can have things that others are denied and for that reason, I’ll continue to support inequality.”

Lol this is such a busy street, what an entitled person! Even if they are 'exempt' this is completely ridiculous. This needs to be brought to the board of alders or the mayors office so this person can be punished for acting like a complete jerk and disrespecting communal space. Theres a whole parking garage they can use they dont need to park here at all

Doesn't city hall have a whole parking garage??

If this is ongoing, send a picture to the director of parking and transportation (Sandeep Aysola) and a description of the problem.

A government worker getting free parking is inequality? OK, Che.

Whatever - you’d make the perfect corrupt bureaucrat building a moat around your petty privileges if you haven’t already achieved that “goal.” 🙄🤣

Aren’t those spots off limits because they’re specifically meant for city workers? It isn’t a fire lane or anything.

Plus your attitude in the report certainly wasn’t going to go far.

Ah the outrage of the parking space nothing more smooth brained. Are you angry do you wish people followed the rules like you do? Shake your digital fist in the air and feel superior...ahhhh
