Address is 91 Vinton Street. Zoned R-3. I am not well versed in zoning but I'm fairly certain R-3 means Residential 3 family not parking lot.
Per the city's zoning ordinances on signs:
603.1 Traffic Hazard (This sign limits visibility at cross street- Federal)
607.1 Permitted Signs By Zone (This sign is on an R zoned lot. Can be no higher than four feet- it is, and four square feet in sign face surface- it is greater)
well the sign is gone because a neighbor called the owner and warned him that he would get unending calls until it was down. But the owner has now put up jersey barriers around the entire circumference except for an egress for the cars that illegally use the lot and for which he charges money==illegal use by a real estate agent. In addition, the snow on the sidewalks has been over 5' high coming from him shoveling all his snow onto them so the cars have space but we--kids and grownups have to walk on the street on that corner. This owner violates code after code--from signage, to illegal parking lot, to improper and unsafe side walks and shoveling. Where are the police? where is the planning and code enforcers? For god's sake, Jersey barriers in a pedestrian neighborhood!
Now the sign is gone, but the put Jersey Barriers around the entire lot! The city says they are reversible. Well, yes. And so it the Taj Mahal and the Capitol building if you have the right equiptment!
