Mayor Domenic J. Sarno announced today that any parking tickets given to residents over the last few days on Dunmoreland Street are being abated per the Mayor’s order. The City began to replace the old and faded no parking signs on Dunmoreland Street, which were initially installed in the 1970’s, to ensure that ambulances, police, fire trucks and school buses could safely pass through. Recently, there was an ambulance call for service and a school bus that reported issues navigating down the street that prompted enforcement.
Mayor Sarno stated, “I understand the rationale behind the replacement of the signs and enforcement, however, we need to give our residents proper notification and notice to adjust accordingly. I want to thank Ward 4 City Councilor Malo Brown for working with my office to ensure that the resident’s voices were heard.”
Ward 4 Councilor Brown stated, “Working in collaboration with Mayor Sarno, we were able to make certain that our constituents were not negatively impacted by this change and that we listened to their concerns together and worked out a solution. Thank you Mayor Sarno.”
