That's because we pretend to sweep the streets during this time, except that we don't clean streets, we clean the area just next to the curb -- when it actually gets cleaned.
But it wasn't done today, nor last week, if memory serves, meaning that the ticketing regime is entirely random -- although at the same time, a bit further down the street, toward downtown, there still is no ticketing at all for parking violations.
As an ironic postscript, I just looked outside and saw the curbside area completely swept clean ... by this afternoon's storm water.
Remind me to tell you about the cop car racing up to horn-blow a specific property on Spring so the "violator" could run out and move his car. Meanwhile, the other 8 "violator" along the route were ticketed.
ReplyDeleteI walk to work every day at sweeping time and invariably I outpace the sweepticketer.
