cars in driveway

 

This is a reminder from the Lochmere Board of Directors that Lochmere covenants do not allow the regular parking of vehicles in the street. 

Article 3. Section 7: states, “No automobiles, trucks, tractors, boats, campers, or trailers shall be regularly parked within the right-of-way of any street in or adjacent to Lochmere”

Please park in your garage or driveway. 

There are many reasons why parking in the street is not desirable.

  • Streets in Lochmere are fairly narrow and it is difficult and dangerous to pass parked vehicles.
  • Children and parents walking to and from school bus stops are at risk because they have to walk around vehicles.
  • Children can run out from behind parked vehicles and be hit by oncoming vehicles.
  • Residents have difficulty in backing out of the driveway when neighbor’s vehicles are parked on the street.
  • It detracts from the neighborhood.
  • The post office can have difficulty delivering mail when vehicles are parked too near mailboxes.
  • It makes it more difficult for emergency vehicles to navigate our streets when cars are parked there.
  • Sanitation and road cleaning trucks have a much harder job navigating our streets when vehicles are parked at the curb.

The Board can call those who do not adhere to the covenant to a Hearing and impose fines.
