Saxon Place Parking Petition
Residents of Saxon Place petition the City of Philadelphia to allow parking on the cement island in the middle of our culdesac due to limited parking and an abundance of vehicles owned by homeowners.
Why is this important?
On numerous occasions the Philadelphia Police Department have been called to our block for parking issues due to residents and guests of residents parking on the cement island in the center of our culdesac. Parking in this area does not affect traffic patterns nor does it affect pedestrians from accessing the sidewalks. Parking in this area is a direct result of limited parking spaces due to multiple cars owned by each home. Residents choose to park here to avoid blocking the fire hydrants and to avoid the blockage of emergency vehicles from accessing any property on Saxon Place. We respectfully request the permission of the City of Philadelphia to park in a reasonable manner on our quiet residential street that has no through traffic. Thus, eliminating unnecessary emergency calls to 911 and eliminating wasted tax dollars on frivolous calls.
