 Subj:    Parking on Dougherty Lake Streets
Date:    August 1, 2002

Although there is no ordinance against it, parking overnight on our streets is becoming a safety hazard.   The situation has recently been called to the attention of the Trustees by several homeowners.

  • In some cases, when cars are parked near a corner, drivers coming out of the side street have difficulty seeing oncoming traffic.  This is especially true on streets intersecting with Beaver Dam Road 
  • Often cars are parked near each other on the opposite side of a street.  This results in a narrow lane and a tight squeeze especially when cars are approaching from opposite directions. 
  • In a few cases, homeowners backing out of their driveways have inadvertently nicked cars parked across the street.
The Trustees recommend that all homeowner park their vehicles either in their garage or driveway, especially over night.
