It's The Quality of The Work That Impresses Me The Most

Last fall, in their wise effort to make the intersection of 7th & State safer, DPW extended the yellow curb on the north side of State Street to prevent cars from parking too close to the intersection.  Visibility of westbound State Street traffic was limited for drivers headed south on 7th Street attempting to enter the intersection.  The new yellow paint removed two parking spaces in an area that has seen an influx of cars over the last year with the two new breweries nearby.  The visibility and safety issues arrived with the new businesses thanks to hungry and thirsty visitors needing a place to park. 

Just 6 months later, however, every bit of yellow paint on the top of the curb is gone, and what remains of the paint on the side of the curb is barely holding on.  Parking will resume there soon enough if it hasn't already.  Of course, a NO PARKING HERE TO CORNER sign is needed in addition to yellow curb paint that sticks around for more than a few months.

Parking allowed?
