Chapel Hill, NC PLUS

Three cars parked on the lawn here. Two on the Ransom side of the property and one on the McCauley side.

The shared parking lot at the southern side of southern community park/dog park/disc golf is a mess People illegally park on both sides of entrances making it impossible to enter or exit safely A woman just challenged me head on with her car insisting that i reverse out of an exit so that she could enter the lot I was leaving Though, cars on both sides of my larger vehicle and on the curb made it unsafe for me to do so I made her back out one car length into dogwood drive so I could leave It's my understanding that there is supposed to be entry from both sides but I don't know for certain bc there is no discernible signage visible or markings on the lot
So, either the entry and exit for one way needs to be clear & or some monitoring of appropriate use parking needs to happen immediately It's a bungled, unsafe mess Kids have soccer Please walk their dogs It shouldn't be a near collision every time someone comes that way

Why are these handicapped spots here? I've never seen anyone use them, ever, and I am here many times a week to go to the gym They aren't convenient for anyone with a wheelchair In fact right now I see a handicapped vehicle with a wheelchair parked in a different spot right in front of these spots-no clue why These are precious spots as they are in the shade and there aren't enough spots here in general -

I've spoken to several people, including the former and current Head of Parking. I've been told the Fire Marshal agrees. And, I used CH Public Transit after surgery recently. Carver Street is NOT a two lane road. It's actually dangerous when it's full of parked cars on one side. Emergency vehicles cannot get through. There is no sidewalk. I cannot walk my dogs safely. I would like to see permit parking only, and only parking for those without driveways.
