A gentle suggestion to the police-
Taking the following steps will increase the city’s revenue:
1. Ticket drivers who go the wrong way down a one way street instead of pulling over and allowing them room to go by.
2. Ticket cars parked within 10 feet of an intersection. Give two tickets to the cars parked on the actual corner of the intersection.
3. Ticket cars parked in the middle of the street. I’m not talking about double-parked cars. I’m talking about the ones that park along the center yellow line in the middle of the road.
Three very simple things. If these laws were enforced for just one day, the city would collect enough money in fines to fund my move out of this place, plus send me on my way in a 67 Corvette and a Manning jersey. It would be that much of a goldmine.
How about just collecting the back resident taxes from the slumlords who move the worst of the worst in next door to you and leave you (a taxpaying homeowner) to deal with their gang-banging, drug-dealing, foul-mouthed, destructive, juvenile delinquent, school dropout children who have no conception of the idea of other peoples property (they think they have a right to it ALL!)!
