How long are they parked there? 15-25 minutes or so? It's not like they park there for hours and hours and hours. Why can't you just let them do their jobs for the few minutes every couple of weeks they need to be there and not complain?

I agree john, lawn guys are only there for a short period of time and are limited in parking options. If thats the case then there is absolutly no reason to complain about the parking at all.

If they are parking overnight on a daily basis then yes the person has a complaint.

I know its a bit off point but i recently had a guy complain about my engine noise, and tried to harass me over that, he settled down after i offered to call the police out for him, some people get crazy if they have to do aomething different than they normally do.

All in all this board isnt for friviless complaints to which this is based off the rules, that truck is parked in the street so based off the rules alone its a poljce issue

Codes Compliance 6 assigned this issue to St. Pete PROD integration

Update from the Codes Compliance Department: vehicles parked on the street are a law enforcement issue and must be handled by the St. Petersburg Police Department. Please contact them when a violation is present by calling 727-893-7780 (non-emergencies) or 911 (emergencies).

you are telling me to do what I already did and indicated such in my original posting.

We forwarded the report to Codes to see if there was anything they could do, but because the vehicles remain on the public road/right-of-way they are unable to take action. We will send the information to the Police Department to make them aware of the situation, and to get clarification on the rule if you feel they are not responding when they should be.

Thats plain stupid if somethings done because from the looks of the picture the person parking on the street is only there to service a residents property and ia only going to be there for about 15 mins.

Its kind of hard to block someone from parking in a spot when your only going to be there for such a short time as the peraon arriving to park there most likely is arriving after the lawn truck has parked ao worst case would be they pull off to the side and wait 5 to 10 mins for them to wrap up thier work and leave.

I just cant believe that cosea is willing to pester someone about thier temporary 15 min legal parking, when all parties involved know the person ia not violating a law or code.

I would understand if the said lawn truck was parking there overnight but they arent, they are hust there for a job

Pickles. I can't believe it, but this person reopened the case. I moved here and bought my house in September 2013. I am 56 years old and in all my life I have NEVER lived anywhere like here, where people complain about the most trivial nonsense. I swear, it's like this person has nothing better to do all day than sit and look out of the window looking for something to complain about. "Whatever", you need to get a happier life. It's too short to waste it complaining about a lawn service legally parking its truck on the street while they cut someone's grass.

You mentioned in your complaint that you're physically challenged. I assume then that you do not cut your own grass and you have a lawn service that does it for you. Where then does YOUR lawn service park? In front of someone else's house? I think THEY should complain about YOUR lawn service in that case.

Why don't you just chill when that lawn service comes to cut grass. Go to the bathroom, take a book and sit on the crapper for 15 minutes and by the time you're butt gets numb, they'll be gone and you won't even notice.

I meant "your" butt. Not "you're" butt.

I normally don't respond to ppl blabbering when they don't know what they talk about, but I will here, just once. I removed all my grass years ago, because it was an issue to cut for me, so i have none. The lawn equipment is there much longer then 15 minutes, exactly how long I cant say because Im not just watching to see. Im often gone and when I return on some days I cant park were it is convenient for me to unload my groceries and other days I cant even go out because their equipment is blocking my truck. They also leave their equipment blocking the alley and at least once i saw a car have to back all the way out the other end to get out of the alley. They just walked away and left it there. There is more, but Im not interested in typing anymore. I've lived here over 25 years.

I also forgot to mention the picture you posted doesn't show him blocking access to your house at all just shows him legally parked at the curbside to service an account, like you're supposed to do

Actually I do know what I'm talking about, if you look at your picture the mowers are behind the trailer meaning that he's servicing servicing a customers property, never said it was yours you assume that. Second off there is no law and no code in the city of Saint Petersburg that says he can't do what he's doing which is parked there on a short-term basis Penna temporarily while he servicing a client's account. It sounds to me more like your being inconvenienced from time to time and you just want to give the hard-working gentleman here a hard time for doing the right thing. I could understand your side of the argument if there was no parking on that side of street signs or no parking sign on the street excetera excetera but there's not, so you have no real grounds to stand on to tell him he can't park there and if you really don't like it all I can say is tough because there are plenty of ways to prevent this without harassing the gentleman or wasting the codes officers time both of which are doing now

No need to tell me john levat, ive almost seen it all on here, even nieghbors bully one another.

Not to mention i used to live avout 4 blocks from this person and even worked thru that nieghborhood as well and have never seen half the problems this person is wgining about, also see that company arpund and they are real professional on how they go about work from parking to the actual work so i have a pretty good feel about this.

I actuallt had one guy tell me in a different neighborhood that i wasnt aloud to run my mower on idle because it upset his dogs, mind you this guy lived across the street and 4 houses down from where i was at, nothing better to do.

Here in st pete ive seen way too many people think crap, like leave the drug dealers alone even when they have guns cause they arent hurting people, the i dont deserve a ticket when im breaking the law mentality towards police traps, the get out my way im setting the pace mentality towards driving, and the bully tactics people do on this board just to aggitate someone and waste peoples time.

I could go on and on but rather not, because people like me and you john are in the minority now unfortunatly

You’re right pickles. These guys just trying to do their jobs must have to take this crap all the time from these idiots. And the poor code compliance people must sit there and scratch their collective heads on how to respond to some of this nonsense.

The City of St Petersburg periodically reviews past reports that are made from citizens within our city limits, and in an effort to clean-up old issues that were resolved some time ago, we are marking as 'closed' those issues that were submitted in the past for which the work has been completed or the issue has otherwise been resolved.

If you think for any reason that the issue you submitted in the past might still be unresolved, please feel free to submit a new report with the SeeClickFix St. Pete website and we will make sure the issue is directed to the appropriate City department to be addressed as soon as possible.
