Mr. Barnett,
I cannot read the license plate of the vehicle in the picture you sent that you believe belongs to an officer. If you can read the license plate, please send it to me via email
and I will look in to it.
Thanks,

Greetings,
First of all, we all have bigger elephants in the room to shoo away instead of little parking problems. But, these parking problems interfere with my elephant management.
Yesterday early morning, a ticket was finally written after
over five years on the illegally parked cars. I will go to my grave believing that if a ticket had been written the first time when I complained about illegal parking that a lot of time and money
would have been saved by having the neighbors observe the law.
(I think one reason may be that yesterday the first two officers did not have ticket citation books so they called in a 3rd officer to provide the ticket: Was I wrong in assuming
reverse discrimination when it might have been a lack of a ticket book? The lack of ticket books indicates yesterday's officers don't write tickets--a flaw in the RPD business model.)
As I have with almost everything digitized since the late 1970s, I added the entries to several files on topics of possible future interest. I have not only a
listing of all the things I did for the neighbor prior to her "white bitch" description of another neighbor, but my tentative 14th Amendement lawsuit against the Richmond and the RPD (which I hope I
don't have to push at some time in the future). When my neighbor revealed herself to be a racist, my helping her stopped. She resented this by then becoming an irritant in my life.
Per the Timism meaning of life, when she was no longer co-enabled to live beyond her means, she became a meanie to those who had been meaningful.
As an irritant, she parked in ways to invade my privacy which I won't list here tho extensive in photos and videos. Consistently, when they arrive/depart they turn on the car
radio loudly for ten or fifteen minutes. If you see my work area, you will realize their noisy radio is closer to my workstation than to their house.
They know that if I call the police that the radio will be turned off before the police arrive. After a few complaints that were a waste of police visits, I stopped calling.
The neighbors have constantly claimed that they have "friends" which an incident yesterday seemed to confirm. We have a new alarm system which has a feature I did not appreciate,
e.g., panic button. Yesterday afternoon, I was visited by several officers to whom I offered apologies and implored them to bill me for a false call. Yesterday evening, two things happened that were logged into several of my diaries.
[It is 4:12am (170517), the daughter came out, saw my lights, turned on the car radio loudly and went back into the house. She came out about five minutes later and drove away.
I have lots of incriminating photos and videos because they always announce their arrivals/departures with the loud radio!}
It is 9:30am (170517) and a car came up, parked the wrong direction, exited the car with the radio blaring and no one inside. I swear Mrs. Brown tells her kids and grandkids
to park opposite my porch work area and turn up the radio. They never park anywhere else!
]
I don't want special treatment. I want fair treatment which includes commercial trucks not driving on my property due to illegal parking. I want privacy to think without an
intentionally blaring radio. A number of legal things need to be done.
Again, I don't want special treatment, just fair treatment and the right to my privacy without intentionally noisy neighbors.
As a ticket five years ago would have saved a lot of time, a simple sign on Anne Street stating a state law, "No parking on pavement," will save RPD a lot of calls, time and money. The Browns
can start using the "Handicap Parking" in front of their house which they requested a few years ago. Please note that I would not be asking RPD to enforce a law or DPU to put up a sign if my neighbor were considerate, respectful and kind. I did nothing but
withhold what I had been doing gratis for a widow and her daughter, e.g., shoveling snow, terracing her sloping backyard, planting shrubs, installing concrete walkway and stoned paths.
As always, have a great, safe day.

P.S. If the four hours I spent composing this missive gets results, it will save me many later hours of disruptions and frustrations by my neighbors actions to disrupt my privacy
and peace of mind. They never parked like this before I broke off communications due to Mrs. Brown yelling at me and calling a neighbor a "white bitch."
P.S.P.S. Crossroad Coffee needs to put a barrier in front of the stop sign for Bland Street (which has been twisted by cars backing into it) so it faces west on Forest Hill
instead of south on Bland. I fixed it twice in the past with a monster plumbing wrench. No more.
