I was curious what was going on myself when I saw the orange barricades<BR>
with signs on them. Just as a reminder to everyone the maximum amount of<BR>
time a car may be parked on Baltimore streets without moving is 48 hours<BR>
so people who are going to be away should make other arrangements.<BR>
Fortunately JHU has offered residents the opportunity to park for free at <BR>their Eastern High School campus. Has anyone taken them up on this offer?<BR>

Yesterday, with less than 24 hour a notice was posted in the upper 3000 block of Guilford saying that all the cars needed to be removed by 6Am on Saturday morning until 4pm, giving no reason and with only a threat that any cars left would be towed. It had the Baltimore Police Dept at the source of this notice. I called our precinct (NE) and the officer at the desk knew nothing about this. Today, Saturday absolutely nothing was done on our street after the vehicles were moved. I ask for as many of you as possible to contact the mayors office about this matter. We were (a) not given sufficient notice and (b) not given adequate cause, (c) nor did the police know about what this was about, (d)410- and nothing was done to warrant this action. Does this mean the city just changed the dates and we are going to ordered again to move our cars? What if people are traveling on that particular weekend or just happen not to come out of their houses during the 24 hours of the posting? Is it just that their cars are towed away? We pay for parking permits which give us the right to park in front of our homes and in the neighborhood. Do we have to start worrying that at the whim of the city or the street department or the water works that they can just come in and start towing legally parked vehicles. I hope that we can get some action on this. I will be calling the Mayor's office again 410-396-4900. And I hope some of you will also. Thank you. David O'Donaghue 3045 Guilford<BR><BR><BR>
