I see this kind of thing all the time and it irritates me to no end. It's only 6 days out of the year. If these people are that hung up about people parking in front of their house on a PUBLIC road, they should seriously consider moving.

"Their property line extends into the road"...

Probably the difference between property line and easement

cougarfann888

Correct; at least I think so.

I think I said "to" the road; and the cars park fully off the road and onto

City typically has an easement on your parking strip

Feel free to check Zillow and see how "valuable" that property is

Extra Biscuits

I can see that. I think it would be really hard to have a house there

Bob Vance

if they really bought before stadium was an issue that means they bought when

cougarfann888
