Subject: Bus #979; keeps parking in Fire Lane (blocks homeowners parked VEH's from moving freely)

RGCA/Reference: 23-3-6-6095

Good afternoon,

On a regular basis, HCPSS bus #979, continues to park in a posted "Fire Lane/No Parking" in the cal-de-sac at the top of Rock Glen Drive in Elkridge.

Please note the marked sign below and how close this is to homeowners parking spots adjacent to where the bus continues to park. The homeowners state this impedes their VEH's from freely maneuvering to and from their assigned parking spots.

The bus driver was alerted by a homeowner that she is not suppose to park there due to being a fire lane (bus driver remarked "I know") and continued to park. Transportation Department was notified and the call taker stated she would contact the manager. The bus continued to park at said location for almost 45 minutes afterwards.

This occurs in the mid-morning and in the early afternoon. It was noted that the homeowners association was contacted and advised HCPD Patrol will be contacted in the future.
