Apparently there is a law in AP that you cannot park within 25 feet of a crosswalk. That goes even if there is no sign (I have only seen one on Grand) and there is no yellow line painted on the curb. I received two tickets in front of my house where there is neither a sign or yellow line. Two days ina row the new traffic enforcement POLICE officer (Off. Butler) came before 8 AM. This morning he brought a measuring wheel and gave someone across the street a ticket for being 23 feet from the crosswalk. There is no sign or painted curb there either. That person got two tickets as well. This morning speaking with the officer he said he was trying to get the city to paint the curbs and install the signs. He also said to contest them and that he will show up and verify that there are no signs or painted curbs. Apparently he is ticketing people so that they will complain. I have already contacted Terry Reidy (no answer) and the Deputy Chief (an answer). I have no doubt that the tickets will be dismissed but what a pain in the butt. Put signs and mark the curbs so people know where and where not to park.
