RE: Proposed ordinance to prohibit parking on a city street in front of
and blocking a mailbox by Alderman Alan Long
Attached please find Alderman Long's email requesting that I draft
an ordinance to prohibit parking in front of and blocking mailboxes. Also
attached is a proposed ordinance that would do so by adding a new
subsection (0) to § 72.03 Parking Prohibited In Certain Places.
The Post Office may not deliver mail if a mailbox is blocked which
can be a real problem if bills and other important mail are delayed.. Please
note that there may be some streets in Fayetteville which have so many
mailboxes and private driveways that this ordinance would effectively
prohibit almost all street parking from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Monday
through Saturday.
